Y'know, if you Google "More children under four die of accidental poisonings at home" -- you'll come up with a bunch of MLM-type businesses peddling supposedly eco-friendly products that use this language.

You won't come up with any links to the National Safety Council with any hard facts or statistics.

are some interesting points on the subject: a.. Carbon monoxide (CO) results in more fatal unintentional poisonings in the United States than any other agent, with the highest number occurring during the winter months (CDC 1999). a.. Childhood lead poisoning is considered one of the most preventable environmental diseases of young children yet approximately one million children have elevated blood levels (CDC 2001). a.. The most common poison exposures for children were ingestion of household products such as cosmetics and personal care products, cleaning substances, pain relievers, foreign bodies, and plants (Litovitz 2001).

You obviously did not bother to visit our website...since the home page contains a direct quote from the National Safety Council. "More children under four die of accidental poisonings at home than are accidentally killed with guns at home." (Accident Facts...National Safety Council,1993)

The site also has a links page that refers interested people to a number of official sources regarding the danger of toxic products. Please try to be more informed before you use such a broad brush in your posts...
