Carbon Monoxide Safety
Nationally, the Red Cross provides food and shelter to
people affected by as many as 70,000 fires annually, or about one fire every
eight minutes.
Prevent carbon monoxide poisoning to yourself and others.
Measure carbon monoxide for safety and knowledge. The more you test the more
you learn. Measurement is education at its best. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety
Fire fighters and all emergency responders should be wearing personal carbon monoxide protectors at all times when in service, and have breathing apparatus on or readily available. If they are denied a CO safety device, their health and lives are in jeopardy, as are the people they are trying to rescue. Let's be smart about this. These are our everyday, every moment heroes. Don't send them into danger without protection. If you are the chief, prevent needless tragedies you'll just feel crummy about later. Bob Dwyer
