Ua hoʻolaʻa ʻia ʻo Toxic-Free Future i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi wā e hiki mai ana olakino ma o ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā huahana palekana, nā kemika a me nā hana ma o ka noiʻi ʻoi loa, ke kākoʻo ʻana, ka hoʻonohonoho lehulehu a me ka hoʻopili ʻana o nā mea kūʻai aku.
Ua pili ʻo Dichloromethane i nā hopena olakino e like me ke kanesa, ka ʻawahia o nā puʻupaʻa a me ke akepaʻa, a me ka make. Ua ʻike ka Environmental Protection Agency i kēia mau pōʻino no nā makahiki he ʻumi, me 85 mau make ma waena o 1980 a me 2018.
ʻOiai ke ola ʻana o nā koho ʻē aʻe palekana a me nā hōʻike e hiki i ka methylene chloride ke pepehi koke, ua lohi loa ka EPA e hana i ka hana ma kēia kemika weliweli.
Ua hāpai hou aku nei ka EPA i kahi lula e pāpā ana i ka hapa nui o ka "hana ʻana, hana ʻana, a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka methylene chloride no nā mea kūʻai aku a me ka hapa nui o nā kumu ʻoihana a me nā ʻoihana," a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i kekahi mau ʻoihana a me nā keʻena pekelala i kahi hoʻokuʻu manawa pōkole.
Ua lōʻihi ko mākou kali ʻana. No ka pale ʻana i nā limahana a me ka lehulehu, e ʻoluʻolu e aʻo aku i ka Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) e hoʻopau i ke kānāwai methylene chloride i ka hikiwawe loa e pāpā i ka hapa nui, inā ʻaʻole nā ​​​​mea āpau, o ka hoʻohana ʻana i kēia kemika weliweli.
