Air out your car before turning on the Air conditioner
Open the windows after you enter your car for a short while. According to
researchers, the car dashboard, seats, air freshener will emit
Benzene, a cancer causing toxin (carcinogen). 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 parked indoors with the windows closed will contain
400-800 mg of Benzene per sq ft.
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. The people inside the car will inevitably inhale an excess
amount of the toxin. 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 difficult for your body to expel.
