Hazardous vs. Radioactive Materials PAHs

[M Nivas <motnivas@YAHOO.COM>]

Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are background

hazardous molecules. They are considered cancer

causing compounds.



These compounds are formed from natural incomplete

combustion (brushfires, forest fires, lightening).



Some people at the The United States Environmental

Protection Agency insists that they are not

background.  Obviously they do not pay attention to

all the brush fires in North America and Austrailia.
