Indoor pollution

Wednesday, August 20th, 2014

Pollution is not just something that occurs outdoors. Pollution can exist inside your house or workplace. And in such an enclosed space, the concentration of toxic materials may be higher than outdoors.

To minimize indoor pollution, avoid using cleaners that contain toxic substances, and if you’re painting or staining, use water-based or no VOC (volatile organic compound) products.

Such products are now commonly available, and work well too. Ask at your favorite stores and be sure to read the labels before purchase or use.
