The CDC must put limits on Dihydrogen Monoxide

Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colourless, odorless chemical that is currently legal in our country.  While the CDC does not label DHMO as a dangerous chemical or carcinogen, it is often found in many toxic substances and is the leading constitute of many environmental hazards and biological diseases.

Ironically enough, these all have DHMO!
Today, DHMO has become one of the most abundant chemicals on our planet.  It can be found in many household cleaners, air-conditioners, cigarets, and other hazardous materials.  DHMO was even used and released into the ocean during the meltdown of the Fukishima Power plant in Japan last year.



So why is this important?  Well today, GIANT CORPORATIONS have begun to use DHMO in many of their products to lower their costs and increase their profits.  Even though it is known that DHMO is found in some of the most dangerous chemicals on Earth, it is still legal for big business to use it on us for their profits.  The use of DHMO has been so prevalent that our lakes and rivers are now been saturated with this chemical!

Other facts about DHMO:
  • often used as an industrial  coolant 
  • since the first nuclear power plant opened in America in 1959, DHMO has been increasingly been found in tumors
  • a major component of pesticides and herbicides
  • if taken on its own, it can improve the performance of athletes.
  • was found in the nazi death camps during WWII
  • is a major component of homemade bombs
  • is often found in schools, and community parks
  • found in shampoos and cough medicine
side effects include:
  1. bloating
  2. excessive sweating and urination
  3. abnormal body temperature

 It is crucial that the public learns about DHMO and takes charge to tell our government we have had enough.  Giant corporations must not have the ability to use DHMO on us in order to increase the size of their wallets.  Call your representative and ask them to ban DHMO!
