Ababhali bocwaningo lwakamuva baphawule ukuthi izinsana nezinsana zisengozini enkulu yokuchayeka kumakhemikhali avimbela amalangabi othulini ngoba zichitha isikhathi esiningi phansi.
Lokhu kwenza imizimba yabo ibe mincane futhi ibe mincane, futhi esikhathini esizayo esiseduze babhekana nezingozi ezinkulu zezinkinga zempilo, futhi ukuhogela le ntuthu enobuthi akulungile kuwo wonke umndeni.
Ososayensi abaphezulu, okuhlanganisa uchwepheshe ozimele wokuphepha komlilo okukhulunywe ngaye ocwaningweni lwentwasahlobo oluthulile, baphawule ukuthi amakhemikhali anqanda amalangabi "awazange anikeze noma yisiphi isivikelo esinengqondo ezingozini abazixazulule-ifenisha.
"Eqinisweni, uchungechunge lwenhlolovo ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka ku-Chicago Tribune lubike ukuthi, ngenxa yemboni kagwayi, i-flame retardant ekuqaleni yafakwa efenisha kuphela: hhayi ukuvutha umlilo.
Ukuze kuncishiswe ukuqubuka kokusha kwezindlu, izinkampani zikagwayi zidinga ugwayi ophephile
Ifenisha yezokuphepha isebenzisa amakhemikhali avimbela amalangabi.
I-flame retardant yenziwe ngamakhemikhali ahlukahlukene, amanye awo avinjelwe futhi amaningi awo awavunyelwe.
Ucwaningo oluwaxhumanisa nezinkinga zempilo yomuntu, njengezinguquko ekukhuleni kobuchopho bengane, luholele ekunqanyulweni kwezinye izinto ezibamba amalangabi njenge-PentaDBE.
Ngokudabukisayo, imiphumela yabo iyaqhubeka: osofa bakudala bagcina la makhemikhali futhi baqhubeke bewakhiphela othulini lwasendlini.

"I-US Chemical Commission igcizelela ukuthi ukunqanda amalangabi kuyindlela edingekayo yokuvimbela imililo, okufakazela ukuthi ikhanda layo liqinile esihlabathini.
Baphinde baveze ukuthi akukho datha kulolu cwaningo oluthile ukufakazela ukuthi la makhemikhali abangela izinkinga zempilo kubantu-kodwa ingabe kufanele siziba ezinye izifundo ezisungula lesi sixhumanisi?
Ngenhlanhla, ngoJulayi, i-EPA yathembisa ukuqala ukuphenya ezinye izindlela eziphephile kulobu buthi.

Hlola ilebula yomkhiqizi ukuze uthole ukuthi uthengani.
Uma ungakathengi usofa omusha noma umatilasi omusha emakethe, qiniseka ukuthi usebenzisa ifeni njalo noma uvule iminyango namafasitela ukuze ukhiphe umoya.
Futhi, geza izandla zakho njalo ukuze ungadluliseli izinsalela ezibamba ilangabi zisuka esandleni sakho uziyise emlonyeni futhi usebenzise isicoci esinesihlungi somoya esisebenza kahle, esisebenza kangcono ekubambeni izinhlayiya ezincane.
