Guest guest Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Please do not turn on AC immediately as soon as you enter the car. Open the windows after you enter your car and turn ON the air-conditioningafter a couple of minutes According to a research done, the car dashboard, sofa, air fresheneremits Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen - take note of theheated plastic Smell in your car). 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 Benzene level indoors is 50 mg per sq. ft... A car parkedindoors with the windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene. Ifparked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F, theBenzene 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 toxins. 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 very difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
