Car A/C (Air Conditioning) MUST READ!!!

According to Snopes the validity is a " mixture. " There is a Korean

study linking car use to benzene exposure, but it appears to be from

the fuel, not the AC. For instance exposure rates were significantly

higher in winter and higher in older cars compared to newer cars.

No wonder more folks are dying from cancer than ever before.

We wonder where this stuff comes from but here is an example

that explains a lot of the cancer causing incidents. Hmmm.

Many people are in their cars first thing in the morning and the

last thing at night, 7 days a week. As I read this, it makes me feel

guilty and ill. Please pass this on to as many people as possible.

Guess its not too late to make some changesCar A/C (Air Conditioning)MUST READ!!!Please do NOT turn on A/C as soon as you enter the car.Open the windows after you enter your car

and turn ON the AC after a couple of minutes.

Here's why:

According to a research, the car dashboard, sofa,

air freshener emit. Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin

(carcinogen - take time to observe the smell of heated plastic in your car).In addition to causing cancer,

Benzene poisons your bones, causes anemia and reduces white blood cells.Prolonged exposure will cause Leukemia, increasing the risk of cancer.Can also cause miscarriage.Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50mg per sq.ft. A car parkedindoors with windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene.If parked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F,

the Benzene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level.People who get into the car, keeping windows closed will inevitablyinhale, in quick succession, excessive amounts of the toxin.Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidney and liver... What's worse,it is extremely difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.So friends, please open the windows and door of your car - give timefor interior to air out -dispel the deadly stuff - before you enter.Thought:'When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit fromit, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.'"Happiness lies in the joy of achievementand the thrill of creative effort."
