Why ensuring Lead paint abatement is a must

Why ensuring Lead paint abatement is a must

• Lead paint removal is a serious topic and should
  not be underestimated in any way. This topic has
  been under discussion for a very long time. It
  comes as a surprise that most people tend to over
  look this threat.

How this problem started

• For decades lead paint was used and for decades
  it has been the
• cause of various health related problems. Even
  though its usage has
• been banned, yet health concerns remain to this
  day. This is because
• homes that were built before the year 1978 were
  painted with lead
• paint. With time, these houses were passed from
  generation to
• generation. They stand very much in the same way
  today as they
• were in 1978. To make matters worse, lead paint
  removal has not
• been ensured in the majority of these homes. So
  the threat still
• remains there undetected.
• There have been lots of attempts on part of the
  government to raise
• awareness about this impending danger. However,
  significant
• attention to this problem has not been paid by
  the people in general.
• The problem persists in many houses to this day
  and continues to
• afflict people like a silent killer.

What started the problem?

• We all know now that the usage of lead paint is
  harmful. We would certainly never use this paint
  in our homes. However, it was being used before
  1978. The most common reason for its usage was
  the belief that lead being a richer color would
  come out to be more durable for protecting the
  homes from moisture. People were unaware in those
  days that despite this attractive benefit its
  usage would prove to be harmful not only for the
  people but also for the environment.

Banned in 1970s but threat still remains

• The negative repercussions on health were the
  reason that led to the ban despite its positive
  effect. However, a good development is that
  houses built earlier than 1978 are required to be
  made lead free as a condition before they can be
  sold by their owners. The bad news is that
  despite this regulation, it still remains present
  in most of the houses.

Possible side effects on your family

• Lead could possibly be fatal which increases the
  urgency to fix this problem. Kids and pregnant
  women stand out as being the most vulnerable.
  Lead paint apart from causing neurological damage
  also harms the reproductive system. Kids and
  especially babies have a tendency to swallow
  things which they pick from the ground. They may
  also lick at their fingers after they have
  touched objects contaminated with lead paints.
