Presenter: Rick Seymour Jack and Pat Seitzinger

FACT: EPA studies indicate that elevated concentration of household chemicals persist in the air. Long-term exposure to chemicals inside our homes may be harmful to us and our families REAL DIRT ON CLEAN 81,000 CHEMICALS REGISTERED WITH THE EPA IN THE LAST 30 YEARS, and fewer than 20% have been tested for toxicity! FACT: 90% of all poison exposures occur at home FACT: 218,316 reported poison exposures in 2005 were from household cleaning products FACT: Most common poisoning among children: Dishwasher detergents! FACT: Indoor pollutants come from all sorts of chemicals we use to make our lives easier every day

FACT: Common household cleaners and appliances give off fumes, which can potentially increase the risk of children developing asthma FACT: An average of one out of every 13 school-aged children has asthma FACT: Asthma rates in children under age five have increased more than 400% in the last 15 years FACT: Some 20 million Americans have asthma REAL DIRT ON CLEAN “We are conducting a vast toxicologic experiment in our society, in which our children and our children’s children are the experimental subject” Dr. Herbert Needleman Pediatrician and Professor at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center

Oven cleaners Drain cleaners Wood and metal cleaners and polishes Toilet cleaners Tub, tile, and shower cleaners Bleach (laundry) ARE YOU LIVING IN A TOXIC HOME? FACT: The average U.S. household generates more than 20 pounds of hazardous waste each year FACT: Most household cleaning products are designated as hazardous waste by the EPA, and “ improper disposal of these wastes can pollute the environment and pose a threat to human health ” FACT: Women who work at home have a 42% higher incidence of all types of cancer than women who work outside the home.

WHAT’S UNDER YOUR SINK? Chlorine Bleach is the chemical most frequently involved in household poisonings in the U.S. Degreasers may contain petroleum distillates, which can damage lung tissues and dissolve fatty tissue around nerve cells Glass Cleaners may contain ammonia. Ammonia fumes can irritate the skin, eyes and respiratory system Oven Cleaners can be one of the most dangerous cleaning products, which can cause severe damage to eyes, skin, mouth, and throat Toilet Bowl Cleaners can be extremely dangerous cleaning products, which can be harmful just by breathing the fumes—and fatal if swallowed
