Kukonzekera Khanda: Zinthu 4 Zofunika Zomwe Ndidachita Kuti Ndibwezeretse Nyumba Yanga

Zamkati

• Gawo 1: Kutsuka
• Dziwani zomwe zili muzogulitsa zanu zapakhomo
• Chepetsani magawo amagetsi
• Gawo 2: Kuseka
• Sankhani utoto woyenera ndikutha
• Samalani matiresi anu

Patangopita maola ochepa kuchokera pomwe ndinapeza kuti ndili ndi pakati, udindo waukulu wonyamula ndikukula mwana udandichotsa chilichonse "chakupha" mnyumba mwanga.

Kuchokera pazinthu zosamalira khungu ndi zotsukira m'nyumba mpaka chakudya, utoto, matiresi, ndi nsalu, zinali zododometsa nthawi yomweyo kuganizira za katundu woopsa yemwe mwana wanga angakumane naye, makamaka m'mimba.

Mu kafukufuku wa 2016, ofufuza adayesa amayi apakati 77 ndi mankhwala 59 wamba, kuphatikiza:

• ma biphenyls opangidwa ndi polychlorinated (PCBs)
• mankhwala (PFCs)
• zitsulo zolemera

Kafukufukuyu anapeza kuti avareji yamankhwala am'magazi a azimayi anali 25 ndipo avareji yamagulu ang'onoting'ono m'magazi a umbilical anali 17. Oposa 90 peresenti ya zitsanzozo anali ndi pafupifupi mitundu isanu ndi itatu yamankhwalawa.

Pofuna kuchepetsa kupezeka kwanga komanso kuti mwana wanga yemwe akukula akhale wathanzi, nthawi yomweyo ndinakwapula kuti ndipeze poizoni wapakhomo ndikuwachotsera zosankha zabwino. Cholinga cha amayi Nambala 1: pangani chisa chopatsa thanzi, chosamalira banja langa lomwe likukula!

Gawo 1: Kutsuka

Dziwani zomwe zili muzogulitsa zanu zapakhomo

Ngati mukufuna kuyang'ana chitetezo cha zodzoladzola zanu, zotchingira dzuwa, zotsuka m'nyumba, kapena chakudya, Environmental Working Group (EWG) ndichinthu chodabwitsa kwambiri.

Pulogalamu yawo ya Healthy Living ili ndi bar code scanner yomwe imagwira ntchito molunjika ndi kamera yanu ya smartphone kuti muwone zovuta, khansa, ndi zovuta zomwe zingakhudze zomwe zingagwirizane ndi zomwe mumapanga tsiku lililonse.

Zosakaniza zilizonse zimayikidwa ndi mtundu ndi kuchuluka. Green kapena 1 ndiye wabwino kwambiri, ndipo wofiira kapena 10 ndiye woyipitsitsa. Kenako malonda ake onse amapatsidwa mtundu wonse komanso kuchuluka kwa manambala.

Ndinayamba powunika zosakaniza mu bafa yathu ndipo nthawi yomweyo ndidatulutsa zonse zomwe zidavoteledwa zachikaso ndi zofiira. Pazinthu zomwe ndimafunikira kuti ndizibwezeretse, ndidasanthula mndandanda wa EWG Verified kuti ndipeze malo obiriwira omwe ndingatenge kusitolo yanga yazakudya kapena pa intaneti.

Chepetsani magawo amagetsi

Tinaganiza zochepetsa magawo amagetsi opangira magetsi (EMF) ndikuchitapo kanthu poteteza mwana wathu wokula kuchokera kwa iwo. Ma EMF amapangidwa ndi chilichonse kuyambira dzuwa mpaka mafoni athu, motero ndikofunikira kuti tisatope. M'malo mwake, dziphunzitseni nokha pamitundu ya EMF (iliyonse imatulutsa pafupipafupi), ndikuwongolera zowongolera.

Ma frequency otsika amaphatikizapo dziko lapansi, subways, AC mphamvu, ndi MRIs. Kanema wamawayilesi amaphatikizira ma TV, mafoni am'manja, Wi-Fi, ndi zida zothandizidwa ndi Wi-Fi. Pomaliza, pamakhala pafupipafupi ma microwave. Izi zikuphatikiza ma microwave ndi satellite.

Ine ndi amuna anga tinayamba kulipiritsa mafoni m'chipinda china komanso momwe ndege imagwirira ntchito usiku wonse. Njira yosavuta imeneyi idathandizira kugona kwathu ndikuchotsa zida zonse zoyendetsedwa ndi Wi-Fi kuchipinda chathu chogona.

Chachiwiri, ndidagula bulangeti ya Belly Armor kuti ndigwiritse ntchito padesiki yanga komanso pabedi kuti nditeteze ma radiation a EMF kuchokera pama foni am'manja, ma laputopu, Wi-Fi, ndi zida zina zapanyumba.

Pomaliza, poyesa momwe timakhalira ndi mapulogalamu ndi zida zomwe zimawunika kutentha kwa mwana wathu, kugunda kwa mtima, komanso kuyenda kwa 24/7, tikusankha kuchepetsa zinthu zazing'ono zomwe zimathandizidwa ndi Wi-Fi kuchokera ku nazale yathu momwe tingathere.

Gawo 2: Kuseka

Nyumba itachotsedwa mankhwala, inali nthawi yodzaza nazale yathu ndi chovala chatsopano cha penti, chogona, bedi latsopano, matiresi atsopano, ndi kapeti yoyera. Zomwe sindinadziwe ndikuti kukonzanso uku kudzakhala kwakukulu kuwonjezeka zotulutsa zoopsa mnyumba mwanga.

Ndinakhudzidwa kuti ndiphunzire za Environmental Protection Agency kuti kuwonongeka kwa nyumba kumakhala pafupifupi kawiri kapena kasanu kuposa kunja. Ndipo pambuyo pakukonzanso kwina, monga kupenta, kuchuluka kwa kuipitsa kumatha kukhala kochulukirapo 1,000 kuposa akunja.

Mpweya woopsawu umayambitsidwa ndi mankhwala osakanikirana (VOCs) omwe amapezeka mu utoto, mipando, zomaliza, ma cushion, ndi upholstery.

Sankhani utoto woyenera ndikutha

Utoto pamakoma anu ukhoza kutulutsa mpweya woopsa wotsika kwa zaka. Sankhani utoto wotsimikizika wa Green Seal, zero-VOC. Dulani makoma osachepera mwezi umodzi mwana asanabadwe.

Chaka chatha chatha, Federal Trade Commission idatsutsa makampani anayi omwe amanamizira mpweya wa VOC muzogulitsa zawo. Chifukwa chake, kufunafuna chiphaso cha munthu wina kungakuthandizeni kuteteza banja lanu.

Tidagwiritsa ntchito ntchito yosaka patsamba la Green Seal kuti tipeze utoto wonyezimira womwe tidagwiritsa ntchito nazale yathu.

Podziwa kuti chiponde chathu chitha kukhala ndi pakamwa panu pathupi, tinasankha chiphaso chovomerezeka cha GreenGuard Kalon (pulogalamu ina yotsimikizira chipani chachitatu cha miyezo ya VOC). Kalon amagwiritsa ntchito lacquer yopangira madzi, yopanda mipando yomwe ilibe poizoni, VOC yotsika, ndipo 100% yopanda zowononga mpweya zowopsa.

Samalani matiresi anu

Timakhala pafupifupi theka la moyo wathu kugona pa matiresi. Iyenso ndi imodzi mwa zowononga kwambiri nyumba zathu ndi matupi athu. EWG imachenjeza kuti matiresi ambiri ali ndi mankhwala omwe angawononge mpweya wakuchipinda ndikuvulaza matupi athu, monga:

• polyurethane thovu, lomwe limatha kutulutsa ma VOC
• mankhwala omwe amatha kukwiyitsa dongosolo la kupuma kapena kuyambitsa mavuto ena azaumoyo
• lawi lamoto wothandizila wolumikizidwa ndi khansa, kusokonezeka kwa mahomoni, komanso kuwononga chitetezo cha mthupi
• Zophimba za PVC kapena vinyl zomwe zitha kuwononga njira zoberekera

Choipa kwambiri, matiresi a khola ndi ena mwa olakwira kwambiri. Mwamwayi, EWG imaperekanso chitsogozo cha matiresi kukuthandizani kusankha njira zopanda mankhwala.

Zaka zingapo zapitazo, tidaganiza zokweza matiresi onse m'nyumba mwathu kukhala thovu lokumbukira zinthu zachilengedwe la Essentia. Essentia ndi imodzi mwamakampani awiri okha ku North America omwe amapanga matiresi amtundu wa latex. Amapanga matiresi awo pongophika mkaka wa hevea (mtengo wa mitengo) muchikombole.

Essentia imawonekera poyera ndi zosakaniza zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito. Fakitale yawo ndi yotsimikizika ku Global Organic Textile Standard komanso ku Global Organic Latex Standard.

Ponena za chodyera chathu, tidasankha Naturepedic, kampani yomwe sikuti imangokhala ndi mphotho zachilengedwe zokhazokha komanso zitsimikiziro za chipani chachitatu, komanso ndi liwu logwira ntchito pakusintha kwa matiresi kuti titeteze thanzi la mabanja athu ku mankhwala osafunikira, kuphatikiza othamangitsa moto.

Mankhwala omwe muyenera kuyang'ana kupewa ndi omwe amaletsa malawi. Sankhani mipando yopanda lawi yamoto ndi zopangira thovu, kuphatikiza mphasa, matiresi, ndi zofunda.

Kafukufuku waku Indiana University adapeza kuti kusinthana ndi mphasa ya brominated- komanso organophosphate yopanda tulo m'masamalira masana kunapangitsa kuti 40 mpaka 90% ichepetse mpweya (kutengera mankhwala). Ofufuzawo adatsimikiza kuti adanyalanyaza zopindulitsa zochotsa kulumikizana kwachindunji kwa mankhwala ndi mwana.

Njira imodzi yozungulira poyimitsa galimoto ndikusunga mpando wamagalimoto wokhala ndi nsalu zosawotcha, monga ubweya wa merino. Mwini, tidalembetsa ku Uppa Baby MESA mu ubweya wa merino. Ndi mpando woyamba wamagalimoto wakhanda wosagwiritsa ntchito moto pamsika kuti mupewe kukhudzana ndi khungu la ana athu.

Pomaliza, ngati mukugula "galimoto yabanja" yatsopano, siyani zitseko zitseguke ndi mazenera pansi momwe mungathere kuti mutulutse galimoto ndikuchotsa mpweya wake.

Mimba ndi nthawi yosangalatsa komanso yabwino - komanso mwayi wabwino wokonzekeretsa malo anu ndikupanga kukhala wopanda poizoni momwe mungathere, kwa ana nonse!
