The Great Indoors
Human lifestyles across the planet are common with the reliance upon combustion. Through the ages we have learned to use and abuse fires in numerous ways. The detriments of this lifestyle are becoming more and more presentable as the compilations of death and human health statistics are studied.
Combustion gasses spewed into “the great outdoors” has taught us that our planet has an atmospheric “roof” and with relation to outer space, we live in an oxygen included atmosphere, a bubble. We are aerobic organisms that dominate the bubble with the forces of fire. We live inside, actually and are discovering we have been lighting fires inside, the “great indoors” and poor health and premature deaths are some of the consequences.
Among the detriments of this combustion driven lifestyle, we find carbon monoxide gas, the gas that can kill us quickly, weaken us periodically or for our whole life. While Hell may wait, the fires on earth are causing quite a bit of misery, death and suffering already.
Not measuring for the poison inside our homes, buildings, recreational vehicles and other locations can end that lifestyle we do have. Testing & measuring carbon monoxide is also a lifestyle. It is suggested you know how much carbon monoxide you are breathing in, not just once in a while, but with every breathe. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety

Increased education, awareness can prevent carbon monoxide poisoning
Minnesota Department of Commerce
SAINT PAUL, MN – Each year about 50,000 people visit emergency rooms in the United States for CO poisoning, and more than 500 die each year from this silent, odorless, colorless gas. As part of Winter Hazard Awareness Week (November 5-9), the Minnesota Department of Commerce warns Minnesotans of the dangers of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and to take steps to avoid this “silent killer.”

Note this distraction from carbon monoxide poisoning:
Bald Eagle Camera Alcoa Bald Eagle Camera, Davenport, Iowa.
A friend of mine notified me that the pair of bald eagles has returned to their nest along the Mississippi River in Davenport, Iowa. The Alcoa Company has their web cam up and running and viewing of the nest is possible during daylight hours, Central Standard Time, US. The Alcoa Eagle website gives a good history of the pair and the company’s involvement with them. If you haven’t viewed this site through the hatching and growth of the eaglets, I think you may find it to be quite a live sight to see when you may have those periodic spare moments. This link will be posted on this site for those people who may wish to capture the link and watch the cycle of life of this nesting pair.
What does this have to do with carbon monoxide safety?
It is just a live web cam, perhaps a distraction from the headlines of death and injury. Please become aware of the air you breathe. Measurement is education. Measure your air accurately when measuring carbon monoxide. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety
