| The EPA has put procedures in place that has been
improving our outside air. There isn't a regulating agency responsible
to protect us from bad air inside our own homes. Evidence has been
growing for more than 20 years that the air we breathe indoors typically
is 2 to 5 times more polluted than outside air.
The EPA claims that people spend approximately 90 percent of their
time indoors either in the office, school or our homes.
Man-made synthetic building materials, furnishings and household
cleaning products have created a virtual chemical soup in our homes with
no natural method of control. Air borne dusts, small enough to pass
right though inefficient furance filters, and too low or elevated
humidity levels doesn't make our indoor comfort any better.
Outdoor air is continually being cleansed with the natural processes
of weather, rain, wind, lightening, and ultraviolet energy from the
sun. Nature's methods of cleaning outdoor air are not naturally present
in our indoor air environment.
Breathing that bad air can cause respiratory infections; asthma and
allergy attacks; skin, eye, nose, and throat irritations; damage to the
central nervous system and cancer. |
