I’m sorry to be the one to point this out (gee, am I the first?) but C&D dust would never be safe to breathe. Never. Ever. I’m a nobody with a basic high-school education and even I am aware of that.

Some volunteers may have said to themselves, “The hell with trying to get a mask, I need to help.” A hero-like thing to do.

But we cannot treat the “heros of the day” as some kind of magical beings who were “failed by politicians” in this case.

Yeah, the EPA apparently did say, “it is safe,” but nobody with an average education should have believed it. There should have been outrage then, and not just now.

But implying that only the politicians could have “saved” these people’s lungs is pretty sickening. Should people only rely on the politicians for what to think?

WHERE TO GO TO TAKE ACTION:

http://www.nycosh.org/UPDATE/v…..ticleid=92

According to the New York Times account: “The draft of the inspector general’s report says that [EPA] ‘did not have sufficient data and analyses’ to make a ‘blanket statement’ when it announced seven days after the attack that the air around ground zero was safe to breathe. ‘Competing considerations, such as national security concerns and the desire to open Wall Street, also played a role in EPA’s air quality statements.‘”

The report charges that the White House Council on Environmental Quality influenced “the information EPA communicated to the public through its early press releases when it convinced EPA to add reassuring statements and delete cautionary ones.” The report cites “reopening Wall Street” and “national security” as reasons for the spin.

These are the men that didn’t ask anyone what “party” they belonged to before they entered the building. These are the men who didn’t hide on that fateful day. And as the occupants of the White House were running out of the building, due to reports of white plumes emmanating from the WH, the folks in the towers were told to go back to their offices…

Anyway, a great way to contribute to the firemen is to buy a year subsciption.

Aside from lung problems, I’ve also heard about unusal amounts of kidney problems and failures. Since the kidneys are responsible for cleansing the blood, it makes sense.

Liver problems too, from trying to metabolize stuffs that just ain’t meant to be metabolized?

Don’t know if you’ll see this, but absolutely — there are many more target organs than just the lungs.

I’m no pulmonologist but it just stands to common sense that dusty air isn’t good for children or other living beings … I just couldn’t understand why the government experts at the time were saying it was safe to breath that powder …

I’m not a pulmonologist either, but a particle person.
“Everyone knows” (and by that I mean people like me who work in air quality research for a living) that (a) breathing lots of combustion-produced particles is bad for you —

*the smoker nods grimly*

particularly at the kind of levels produced by the WTC buildings as they burned, and (b) that the high temperatures associated with that combustion in all likelihood produced all kinds of atypical chemical species in the air or on/in the particles.

You can get almost anything to react with almost anything, all it takes is enough energy… and there was SCADS of energy available to the witches’ brew of complex molecules in all that pulverized building material/electrical and computer equipment/Dog only knows what else just waiting for the activation energy to do something frothy. -_-

Besides, anyone with a lick of sense would have known that ground zero should have been a superfund site – no need for the EPA on that one. The denials in the media merely told me how pervasive the corruption in this society is.
