Remember to Open Your Car’s Windows after You Get into Your Car!

January 25th 2009 12:44
Attention, please…!

If you’re one of the car owners, then you should read this on, as it relates with your personal and loved ones health!

According to the latest research done by the University of California, most of the components inside the car, such as the car dashboard, sofa, interior decoration and air freshener will emit Benzene, where it is to be known as one of the main cancer causing toxins! Furthermore, Benzene can cause a harmful poison to your bones; reduce the amount of white blood cells or even causing you having Leukemia as well




The acceptable Benzene level indoors is about 50 mg per square feet. Do you know, what is the amount of Benzene of a car that parked indoors with the entire window closed? Let me tell you, it’s at least 8 to 16 times higher than the standard 50 mg per square feet. The more shocking thing is if you parked the car outdoors and exposure it under the sun at a temperature above 16 degrees Celsius, then the amount of Benzene can goes up to 2000 – 4000mg, where it’s 40 to 80 times of the acceptable level!

If you don’t want to be the next cancer victim, you should open the car’s windows and door for at least 5 minutes, before you enter to the car and start the engine. Remember that Benzene is a highly dangerous chemical substance, where it can cause permanent kidney and liver failure!
