lists 139 products known to contain asbestos, the carcinogen that causes mesothelioma and many other illnesses.

Products containing asbestos are still legal in the United States. An article on PRWeb states that the government may not track newer asbestos-containing products. The Environmental Protection Agency “does not track the manufacture, processing, or distribution in commerce of asbestos-containing products. It would be prudent for a consumer or other buyer to inquire as to the presence of asbestos in particular products.”

On their website, Cancer Monthly lists 139 products identified throughout history as having contained asbestos. To protect yourself and others, stay informed. You can see the entire list of products containing asbestos <a href= “http://www.survivingmesothelioma.com/news/view.asp?ID=0043″here</a>.

Michelle Chesser accepted it instead since her husband, David Chesser, was back in the hospital due to complications with a dangerous surgery. David has mesothelioma, and had recently undergone a procedure to remove his appendix, spleen, and part of his pancreas, as well as a course of chemotherapy

According to Blair Ortmann at the Beaumont Enterprise, David wanted very badly to attend the ceremony where he was to be promoted to Fire Chief after 35 years of service. However, David and Michelle are keeping positive, hoping that this “rollercoaster… is just a bump in the road.”

Mesothelioma is a very aggressive cancer that has been linked to asbestos exposure. Firefighters are routinely exposed to asbestos when fibers form the mineral are released into the air during a fire. Even with heroic surgeries, mesothelioma is usually fatal within about 2 years of diagnosis.

Nano particles, which are common in items such as cosmetics, medicine, and tennis rackets, have been shown to potentially produce damage on DNA and may trigger cancer, heart disease, and atherosclerosis, according to a recent Danish study. But what are nano particles?

Every Second Counts divx

Nano particles are custom built atomic structures. Because they are custom built, nano particles can be used in all sorts of applications, and are currently being developed for use in electronics, detergents, packaging, medicine, and more.

While research is going on all over the world for these particles, we don’t know how harmful the future products will be to us, our children, or nature. We don’t know how nano waste will react. Will it break up and dissolve? Will airborne particles have the same effects as asbestos exposure?

Asbestos, which is as small as three micron (3 millionths of a meter), can cause lung cancer or mesothelioma if inhaled, and there is no safe exposure level. Nano particles, in comparison, are one billionth of a meter, or 0.000000001 meter.

Nano products are estimated to be worth at least $100 billion by 2015. Of course, the industry is going to love the ability to produce goods specifically designed and fine-tuned for their exact purpose, but at what cost to our lives?
