thousands of defense personnel have been likely exposed to asbestos because of the navy. The Age has also stated that Comcare, a government workplace watchdog, has previously warned the ADF of jeopardizing the safety of its soldiers, sailors and air force personnel.

Jeff Dunham: Arguing with Myself rip Families of those serving were shocked to learn that these asbestos parts were still being used by the ADF in 2009, eight years after they were banned across Australia, according to The Asbestos Diseases Society of Victoria.

Barry Robson, president of the Asbestos Diseases Foundation of Australia, said he was unsurprised by the ADF’s inaction on asbestos, because of a “steady stream” of former defense personnel suffering asbestos-related diseases.

Breathing asbestos fibers can lead to scarring of the lungs, asbestosis, or mesothelioma, a particularily aggressive form of lung cancer.

Radon Action Month brings lung cancer awareness

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

Killing 22,000 people a year, the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the US is radon—a colorless and odorless gas that occurs naturally through the breakdown of uranium in soil and rocks and seeps into homes through cracks in basements and foundations.

However, a simple and inexpensive test can be used to detect radon gas seeping into homes.

Acting Department of Environmental Protection Secretary John Hanger has said “homeowners can protect themselves and their families from this known carcionogen by using a test kit avialible for about $25 at hardware stores. If radon is present above a minimal recommended level, the home can be fixed for less than $1,500.”

The best time to test your home is the heating season; your home is closed and it is more likely radon will be at its peak concentrations, according to Hanger.

Radon test kits are available at many hardware, home improvement, outdoor supply, lawn and garden, and department stores. Most people can perform the test themselves, and send the test kits to a certified lab where the sample is analyzed. The results are sent back to the homeowner. If unsafe levels of radon are present, homeowners can hire a professional to install a radon mitigation system in their home.

Deleon was the president of an asbestos removal training school in Massachusetts that was recently busted for selling certificates without proper training, thus putting hundreds of workers’ health at risk.
