  T he Salton Sea, California's largest lake, is producing more toxic hydrogen sulfide gas than previously thought, according to a new study. The levels are so high that they exceed the state's air quality standards, posing a potentially greater risk to the health of local communities.

The Salton Sea, California's largest lake, is facing severe environmental challenges as it has been discovered to be even more toxic than previously thought. A recent study by the U.S. Geological Survey revealed that the lake's sediment contains high levels of toxic chemicals, including selenium and DDT, which are harmful to both wildlife and human health. The shrinking water levels due to prolonged drought and reduced agricultural runoff have exacerbated the problem, leading to increased dust storms that carry these toxins into the air, affecting nearby communities. The situation is dire, with calls for urgent action to mitigate the environmental and health risks posed by the lake's deteriorating condition.
