Cancer-Causing Benzene Leaking From California Stoves

Very dangerous levels of benzene are leaking from gas stoves in California. Benzene is a very toxic gas that is known to cause blood cancer and other major health problems.

Scientists collected unburned gas samples from 159 stoves from homes across the state of California. According to their findings, the scientists found Benzene in 99% of the samples taken.

“What we saw is that in specific cases, simply having a gas oven in your kitchen could make benzene focuses equivalent to handed-down cigarette smoke,” PSE Sound Energy said in a connected blog entry. As even low groupings of benzene can raise the gamble of malignant growth, there is no protected degree of openness, as indicated by the World Wellbeing Association.

The study also says that pollution from the gas stoves could also be linked to climate change and air pollution!

Let’s stop pollution and hope that we will be able to solve this problem with any new invention!
