Can we afford to Breath in our Environment?

The Environment

It is becoming more toxic every single day! Why is this? Well, maybe this will drive the answer home.

What do the following items have in common with each other?----formaldehyde; phosphates; ammonia; chlorine bleach; abrasives; aerosol propellants; paint thinners; paints

Or how about these:

sodium laurth sulfate; ethoxylated lauryl alcohol; pentasodium diethylenetriamepentacetate and dieethylene glycol monobutyl ether. If swallowed call a Poison Control Centre or Doctor immediately. Do not induce vomiting. If in eyes, rinse with water for 10-15 minutes.

Now the answer:

All the above are commonly found in our home and workplace!

And the "or how about these"

They can be found listed on the label of a very common household cleaner. In fact many of the above chemicals are known to cause cancer and other immune deficiency diseases. Did you know that studies by governments and independent research facilities, have proven that the average indoor air is 50+ times more toxic than the outdoors air.

Think of that the next time your doctor tells you to take a deep breath!

Amazing Statistics

According to the Centre for Energy,www.centreforenergy.com, here are 7 facts:

1/ fossil fuels are consumed 100,000 times faster than created,

2/ one hour of sunshine equals all the energy used by humans in a year,

3/ on a per capita basis Canada is one of the largest energy users,

4/ by the age of six months the average Canadian has consumed more energy than the average person in the developing world consumes in a whole life-time,

5/ the primary resource industry produces the equivalent of 71 bags for every one bag of garbage we take to the curb,

6/ North America wastes 27% of all food produced,

7/ 54,000 tons of household cleaners are consumed by Canadians each year and almost half the Exxon Valdez oil spill, 4,000.000 litres of waste oil, is spilled in storm sewers every year.

Earth Day-April 22nd

Celebrate the birth of the "modern environment movement", all year round by supporting the following:

1/ If every Canadian home replaced one 2.95 litre bottle of petroleum-based liquid laundry detergent with a plant derived product Canada could save 2,242,187 USGallons of oil. And if the United States did the same, Americans could save 22,421,870 USGallons of oil. That's like WoW!

2/ And if every Canadian home replaced one 1.27KG box of phosphate containing automatic dishwasher detergent, with a phosphate-free product, we would prevent 6,562,500 Lbs of phosphates from polluting Canadian lakes, rivers and drinking water. And if the United States did the same, Americans could save 65,625,000 Lbs of phosphates from polluting their lakes, rivers and drinking water. And that's like double-WoW!! WE have to "protect it". We have only one environment.
