The Grasp For Green

There isn’t any environment I can think of that couldn’t be hazardous to humans. Simply because it’s a fact that, where there are humans, there are chemicals. That doesn’t necessarily mean that lifes are at stake at all times. As long as there’s awareness of what those chemicals are capable of, alone, or even more unpredictable and therefore more dangerous: in combination with each other! Working conditions from family premises to flexo printer shops require the utmost and consistent care. There shouldn’t be any difference of approach in Anilox roll cleaning or attic sweep outs. We all have our responsibilities and have to grasp all available opportunities for a more green environment. The wrong choice, use, maintenance and way of storage could cause harm directly or indirectly to humans at both places, even ignite an environmental disaster. Bhopal, India, December 3, 1984, showed what chemicals can do, even till this very day! That was on a large scale, true. But imagine a large apartment building in the centre of a city, and a first explosion on one of its floors that avalanches a lot more of those. Image by Photobucket/Its_Heather123
