So. . . Just did a little reading, the same stuff that’s in our cosmetics is also used for brake fluid, antifreeze, film, solvents, paint and ink (ethylene glycol) And on the polyester we wear and sweat in is also used in antifreeze (ethylene glyco) Then there’s flammable isobutylene which is used to manufacture tires (and helps give rubber it’s rubberiness) which makes me wonder how much of this stuff is in our air and water as tires wear down and are replaced whenever travel And the ethylhexyl acrylate which is used in adhesives and construction materials and probably caused the Nicky mouse voice on that viral video And finally vinyl chloride which is used to make pvc plastic and is a well documented carcinogen I do wish we had better choices than these things
