Please do NOT turn on A/C as soon as you enter the car.Open the windows after you enter your car and turn ON the AC after acouple of minutes.Here's why:According to a research, the car dashboard, sofa, air freshener emitBenzene, a Cancer causing toxin(carcinogen - take time to observe thesmell of heated plastic in your car).In addition to causing cancer, Benzene poisons your bones, causesanemia and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure will causeLeukemia, increasing the risk of cancer. Can also cause miscarriage.Acceptable Benzen e level indoors is 50mg per sq.ft. A car parkedindoors with windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene.If parked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F,the Benzene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptablelevel.People who get into the car, keeping windows closed will inevitablyinhale, in quick succession, excessive amounts of the toxin.Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidney and liver... What's worse,it is extremely difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.So friends, please open the windows and door of your car - give timefor interior to air out -dispel the deadly stuff - before you enter.
 
Smoking is different ... its something that can kill us but we still doing it willingly. This benzene is unwillingly, hahahaaaa.

How about smoking ?

one cigarette got up to 75microgram of Benzene also...

some interesting chemical in ciggy includes;

Beryllium (0.5nanograms) - Use to harden alloys
Cadmium (1.5microgram) - use for Ni-Cd battery and steel plating as anti-corrosion
Nitromethane - use for making pesticides, explosive & racing fuel for dragster and RC engines...
 
Therefore, it's best that once your startup your car, wind down the windows and get out, let the interior cool down. While cooling down, lite up a cigi and finish it before you re-enter your car.:top::top:
 
errr.. I been driving with the air con ON for 30 years.. I should be dead by now with all the poison in me..
 
Never read this before and still dunno what u talking about..:smokin:

It meant during the FIRST blast of aircond la. Not during driving. Otherwise all of us also up at the heaven already.

Some more info (click)

While I agree its good to "exchange" the cabin air periodically and do so myself, keep in mind having the windows down while you reverse through your startup exhaust or merge onto a busy road can potentially expose the occupants to even more benzene and other carcinogens in the form of exhaust fumes. If you choose to do so better to wait for a clear space :)

But sounds like the threat may be rather exaggerated by the email author, as the concentration is overstated by a lot. Ramsing's methane injection system however is confirmed deadly one :D
