Dangerous Pollutants

These laws are designed to protect people from exposure to dangerous pollutants and toxic chemicals. Nonetheless, unintentional releases of toxic chemicals, industrial chemical spills and illegal dumping occur all too regularly. Most disturbing is the fact that many of the illnesses and diseases related to dangerous toxins take years to develop. It is often the case that an entire community or group of workers will begin to get sick many years after the initial exposure to a toxic chemical or pollutant. This is due in part to the long latency periods associated with exposure to these substances and the subsequent development of the disease or illness. It is, therefore, often very difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of a person’s illness or disease. It is equally difficult in some cases to determine when and how they were exposed to a toxic chemical or pollutant until creating an extensive history profile including where they lived and worked over their lifetime.

Cancers, respiratory diseases, skin ailments, and blood disorders are common symptoms of chemical exposure. Many of the diseases related to chemical exposure have significant long-term effects, and in the most tragic cases can result in death.
