Abstract
The environmental fate and effects of cadmium have been reviewed and evaluated by the Ecotoxicology Section of the Scientific Advisory Committee on Toxicology and Ecotoxicology of Chemical Compounds (CSTE), and advice has been given to the Commission of European Communities in 1981 (Commission of the European Communities, 1981) on its impact on the environment and on ecosystems, and on the identified risks connected to the levels of cadmium exposure on man and the environment.
