Reuters and public health researchers report children in Nigeria are showing dangerous blood lead levels,

linked to lead acid battery recycling, tied to overseas supply chains.

Here's Monica Kellan with more.

Reuters reports new field studies find elevated blood lead levels among children living near informal and formal battery recycling sites in Nigeria.

Egos, including Pure Earth and local partners, say poorly regulated smelting and unsafe dismantling practices contaminate soil and air.

Researchers link exposures to recycled lead flows in global supply chains, urging importers and manufacturers to tighten sourcing audits.

Nigerian officials say enforcement actions and cleanups are underway, while the WHO warns no level of lead exposure is safe for children.

Advocates call for certified recycling standards, medical screening, and rapid remediation to cut risk.
