The House of Representatives narrowly passed a bill to 'improve the environment' on June 26, 2009

Many think that they have lost jobs and raised taxes

I think they should give some consideration to the harm of glycol ether chemicals

Not only should they be avoided for our health's sake,

they also contribute significantly to the rapid acceleration of global warming  *

& are not being considered for this at all

Will we have more of these 'in the air?'  *

There is a lot of this chemical expelled into the air, and when it breaks down, it produces CO and CO2  *

DEFINITION:

 

2-Butoxyethanol is an organic solvent with the formula C6H14O2. It is a colorless liquid with a sweet, ether-like odour. It is a butyl ether of ethylene glycol, but should not be confused with it.

 

PRODUCTION:

 

In 2006, the total European production of all butyl glycol ethers amounted to 181 kilotons per annum (kt/a), approximately 50% (90 kt/a) of which was 2-butoxyethanol. World production is estimated to be 200 to 500 kt/a, of which 75% is for paints and coatings.

I feel sorry for GM.  Sued for health damage they didn't cause, and now having unreasonable vehicle emission controls placed upon them that aren't the sole cause of our environmental woes.

Avoid products with glcyol ether

Vapors in eyes * is an exposure to these health-hazardous chemicals

These chemicals can cause muscle / joint and other pain to start up from multiple autoimmune issues.  Then the medical profession has no concern about the type of medications that are prescribed?  Maybe this will change now with the death of Michael Jackson

Why don't doctors find the anemia of CFIDS, CFS, FM?

More than one thing is going on 'wrong' at a time

"The number one cause of drug addiction is not street drugs, but doctor prescribed drugs"

said a doctor friend of Michael Jackson 6-26-09

Check the Chemical Formula of your Medications 

 

Obama implores Senate to pass climate bill

House narrowly OK’d first legislation meant to curb global warming gases

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31565446/ns/us_news-environment/

Please regulate glycol ether to help slow global warming

What about the significant contribution to CO and CO2 that glycol ethers cause? Please consider these not only for causing multiple autoimmune issues and cancers, and birth defects, but also for the rapid acceleration of global warming.

Be Careful what you clean with  *

Housewives?  (Law exempts individuals from knowing what is in the products they use in their homes)

One of these days doctors will notice that it is glycol ether that causes so much harm *

What are the glycol ethers?  *  *  ... causes 'the flu' * 

and many autoimmune health issues thereafter  (CFIDS, CFS, FM)
