For Safety - Air Your Car Before You Turn On The Air Con

Open the windows after you enter your car

In
brief, the above article says: According to research done by a U.C.,
the car dashboard, sofa, air freshener will emit Benzene, a cancer
causing toxin (carcinogen). In addition to causing cancer, it poisons
your bones, causes anemia, and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged
exposure will cause Leukemia, increasing the risk of cancer. May also
cause miscarriage. Acceptable
Benezene level indoors is 50 mg per sq. ft. A car parked indoors with
the windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benezene. If parked
outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F, the
Benezene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level.
The people inside the car will inevitably inhale an excess amount of
the toxin.

It
is recommended that you open the windows and door to give time for the
interior to air out before you enter. Benzene is a toxin that affects
your kidney and liver, and is difficult for your body to expel.

U know what is benzene????

I worked on a chemical tanker before and we had loaded thousand of tonnes of benzene... discharging in the States.... do u know the amount of safety precautions we had to take while discharging or loading benzene.... even with the precautions taken, we had to ventilate vaporised benzene into the air, and I probably had inhale so much of that during that period, I should not be alive today going by your post.....

And do you think the US consumers will not be suing the pants off all vehicle manufacturers if the above is true... they had successfully sued ciggy makers for 2nd hand smoke......

The above is all untrue......

dun be so serious lah. It's just that nowadays alot of SG people are very health consious, as long as they heard these will cause harmful effects, they will find ways to take precaution. Same applies to health products.

Seiously i am still wondering how charcoal actually can work wonders

"It is recommended that you open the windows and door to give time for the interior to air out before you enter".

some bro/sis here got so much poison fitted on their car that they must wait half a day before they can enter leh.....

No lah,... I find it incrdible that so many people take it as face value for everything they read off the internet or recieved as a mail....... like the recent mail spam about tsunami hitting Singapore, it is completely false and yet people are still spreading it around...... I recieve something in the mail, I read I delete and forget about it.... I do not like it when people start spread false information......

Buy up all the Charcoal from Diaso and do a Laylong Sales during the next meet up!

This benzene issue may be true as the car makers are changing to other processes and material to manufacture cars as many toxins are released into the atmosphere just to make 1 car. Same with BPA in milk bottles, if it is not true, why are there BPA free bottles and baby products selling in the market ? Our era no BPA free and not all of us will leave this world the same way one day.

Just relax, it's just a piece of info for us filter on our side.
