Follow on Google News | Dangers of Formaldehyde Exposed in New Public Outreach VideoThe IAQ Video Network produces the third in a series of public outreach videos to educate the public about indoor air quality (IAQ) issues.
Formaldehyde is a chemical widely used by industry to manufacture building materials and numerous household products. Its primary use is in the production of resins and as a chemical intermediate. It is also a by-product of combustion and certain other natural processes. This means it may be present in substantial concentrations both indoors and outdoors. As far back as 1987 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classified formaldehyde as a probable human carcinogen. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) does classify formaldehyde as a human carcinogen and the California Air Resource Board (ARB) has classified formaldehyde as a Toxic Air Contaminant. “Releasing three educational videos in two weeks is an exciting development at the IAQ Video Network,” reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network. “One of our primary goals when we began creating videos was to do all we can to educate people about IAQ issues and these videos are a major step in that direction.” To view any of the three videos please visit http://www.IAQTV.com or http://www.youtube.com/ http://www.youtube.com/ http://www.youtube.com/ The IAQ Video Network was launched in March of 2010 and has to date produced 7 videos from IAQA chapter workshops from Hawaii to Philadelphia as well as conference videos from the annual IAQA, ACCA, EIA, CETA, AIHce and NADCA conferences.
