About this CO Safety slide/video program process
"Teaching Carbon Monoxide Safety For the Life and Death of it"
NOTE - Slide and video segments of this presentation are being placed on this updating daily web site. Within the next few days and weeks, the entire updated 2020 CO safety program can be viewed in segments on this site for use in the classrooms I won’t be attending in person and for those viewing this Internet site.
"Every live presentation I do is about the same topic but each one is presented differently. This means I may charge up and rearrange slides to present the information from alternate perspectives. My slides will become familiar though it will seem the supportive CO News links will unfortunately continue with painful similarities."
This also expands our community education program for fire departments, emergency responders, health care providers, code and building officials and everyone else involved in community and individual safety practices.

The placement of these segments here are also to support the ESCO Group and the HVAC Excellence instructors with their training and exam duties. These segments viewed will help prepare the trainee for their Carbon Monoxide and the Combustion Analysis exam credentials while helping aid the instructors in their efforts. Viewing the daily CO News links widens your CO perspective.
Contact - the ESCO Group https://escogroup.org/ for more information on the CO exam and all their training and written exam certifications. Every item on this site is placed in the efforts to raise awareness to help reduce the impact carbon monoxide has on people.
We can accomplish and seek solutions through daily research and measurement. What is the point of teaching if we don’t practice what we teach? Without measurement add darkness to the description of "The Silent Killer". "We are all students gathering information when it comes to carbon monoxide safety."

Please Note: "Place a carbon monoxide alarm with a digital display on a seat in the motor vehicle when you are out driving in emergency snow conditions (or always for that specific). Harmful levels of carbon monoxide (CO) can penetrate inside a motor vehicle just due to prevailing winds and exhaust not moving away from the vehicle but under it. If you want to learn more about carbon monoxide, begin measuring it with a personal CO monitor everywhere you go." Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety

After prevention there is no greater awareness than measurement.
Awareness leads to quick thinking. Measurement leads to quick action.
Are you in the know?
Do I know enough about carbon monoxide and carbon monoxide poisoning to justify never knowing how much is in the air I breathe every day, everywhere I go?”
There are some people who want to be notified of the presence of carbon monoxide at levels or concentrations as soon as the gas is present, at concentrations well below those that can instigate poor health symptoms but not be high enough levels to sound the CO alarm they own.
There are some people who do not want to push a button on their CO alarm to see what low, aggravating levels of the poison might be in their home, or anywhere.

Athens Air Pollution Records Fall After Coronavirus Restrictions
Greek Reporter
A significant drop in air pollution readings has been observed in Athens since the government took strict precautionary measures to counter the spread of the coronavirus, scientists said on Friday. - Based on a comparison of the average daily concentration values per day for the period March 11, when schools were closed, until March 18, 2020, with the corresponding period of 2019, there was an overall decrease of 11.4 percent in nitrogen dioxide pollutants. (More)
Business as usual not a wise response to climate crisis
The Recorder
Recent studies have also shown that the biggest and oldest trees in the forest not only store the most carbon but continue to do so at a much faster absolute rate than younger trees. - “The conservation of large-diameter trees in tropical and temperate forests is therefore imperative to maintain full ecosystem function,” including carbon capture and storage. - It is of inordinate importance to protect the largest trees we now have because it will take centuries to replace them, centuries we don’t have in the face of the Climate Emergency. (More)
The climate crisis is still ongoing. Once the pandemic is over, let’s not return to business as usual
The Independent
The coronavirus has resulted in our transport infrastructure shrinking worldwide, tour firms in meltdown, cruises cancelled and pubs, cinemas and restaurants closed down. Technical fixes such as industrial carbon capture are unlikely to save us. Once the pandemic is over, let’s not return to a business-as-usual, live-only-for-today lifestyle. (More)

We have all been CO poisoned, some more than others
We have all inhaled carbon monoxide. We are a world of fire users.
What is in the air you are breathing right now?
What will you be doing today; walking into poison?
Who will be responsible for the air you breathe?

What will you be doing today; walking into poison?
Who will be responsible for the air you breathe?
You may be the only person who can prevent your own poisoning.
We are all vulnerable to carbon monoxide exposure and poisoning.
Everyone has been poisoned by CO and will be poisoned again. The degree of the poisoning depends upon allowing yourself to be in a situation where someone else controls the air you breathe and the mechanisms for alarming notification.
Please read the alarm information on the package and in the instructions that come with the carbon monoxide alarm. Know that if it is a U.L. 2034 Listed product (or CSA 6.19 Listed), it is a high level alarm that has been tested to alarm no sooner than 70 PPM at the lowest (the alarm must resist for one hour when above this level) and when over 400 PPM before 15 minutes at the highest concentration, after resisting alarming for 4 minutes when over this level.
Know when your fire department and emergency responders begin wearing their breathing apparatus and what their civilian evacuation levels are for carbon monoxide; it may be as soon as the gas is present in your presence. Pregnant women, infants & children, people with heart & respiratory struggles, those suffering depression or chronic headaches and all people of vulnerable health should be alerted as soon as the gas begins to concentrate, around 10 PPM (parts per million) or lower.
You most likely need a low level carbon monoxide detector to sound off when carbon monoxide hazards are just beginning, not after you’ve been exposed to levels that make you have headaches, flu-like symptoms, increased tiredness, heart stresses or worse.
Do not take risks with carbon monoxide. Take responsibility for the air you breathe and the combustion systems you are responsible for. If you don’t do it for yourself, do it for others, unless you think $45.00, high level protection is good enough.
