WARNING: HASARDOUS WASTE IS LOOSE! Hazardous waste can be found anywhere, including in your own home! Many don’t believe that things like batteries, cleaning products or even Band- Aids are hazardous waste. In reality they are. The battery acid is poisonous when released, cleaning products are pure chemicals that can destroy the Earth and that can circle back into our food sources. Band-Aids are considered a Biohazard because of bodily fluids they may contain when they’re taken off. Not all Hazardous wastes are nuclear. Paint is another major hazardous waste product in homes. Many are in your own home and a part of every day life. Another major one is weed killer that people use every day on their own lawns and gardens. In vegetable gardens, the pesticides and herbicides are poisoning us as well and not just weeds and bugs. Solid Waste Management 9191 E.
