And, the truck rental is not free. This is not a smart way to wisely use your time.

The Perils of Hazardous

To help mitigate the risk of hazardous waste The United States Government founded the Environmental Protection Agency or EPA. This agency was founded in part to help educate the public about the nature of hazardous waste, and to help identify what is considered hazardous, and how to lessen or completely rid the country of the potential dangers.
Contamination is one of the greatest risks in dealing with hazardous waste. This can be found on land, airborne contaminants, or waste released into our water supplies. All potentially causing great harm not only to ourselves but to the environment. One of the great dangers is contaminated water getting into our dwindling aquifers systems. There is the potential that future generations may be faced with a very severe clean water shortage which could have the potential to completely devastate our way of living.

There many dangers lurking in our households. Lead found in toys for example can cause cancer. Not properly ventilating an area where you are using certain aerosols that contain harmful materials can be hazardous to your well being. Many substances such as asbestos have been banned which has helped in reducing cancer deaths. Many people without even realizing it, dump hazardous waste down their drains every day polluting our water and land. That it why is imperative to read all labels on any product that you are using. And if you not sure find someone who can clarify and answer all your questions. A great source of information for the citizens of College Park is to contact your regional EPA. In Georgia, that would be Region 4 and they will have the answers you seek.

So use caution and be prudent when using household products and take nothing for granted. It is up to you to help protect our environment and thus ensuring a safer community for you and your family. Education is imperative. Talk to your local government officials your neighbors and read all you can on this subject so that you can be part of the solution and not cause a potential problem by not being properly informed. The EPA has published a list of hazardous materials and we have named a few in the following section.
