It would be great if the gas emergency service had a legal duty to test the air indoors or the emissions from gas appliances for carbon monoxide (CO) and, if CO found, providing parts per million of CO in writing/digitally for the medics of the person exposed.

Well done Logic4Training and Mark Krull for installeronline.co.uk/heating/airbnb… but does everyone know that a gas safety check and certificate does not require a mandatory duty to test for deadly carbon monoxide nor does the gas emergency service. Does anyone agree this is wrong?

thebusinesstimes.co.uk/silent-killer-… Good warning British Gas but why don't you offer an investigative service and test for CO with where CO found, parts per million of CO found in writing/digitally to those buying a new property or anyone else even for payment? If you do, tell us.

So we ask everyone to make sure they know how to PREVENT carbon monoxide. Please watch our one minute film about Sue who had carbon monoxide poisoning - could save your life co-gassafety.co.uk/one-survivors-… For more detailed information please watch our animation co-gassafety.co.uk/animation/

Project Shout is raising awareness of carbon monoxide (CO). Yes buy a CO alarm to EN 50291 & get it going but plse have carbon fueled appliances serviced & chimneys/flues swept & ensure adequate ventilation 1st to prevent CO. CO alarm = extra safeguard. rb.gy/s1v8o7

Re Project Shout & rb.gy/s1v8o7 CO alarms, even to EN 50291, don't alarm until 30 Parts Per Million of CO for more than 2 hours. WHO guidelines no more than 3.5 PPM averaged over 24 hours. Gas experts say only safe level of CO is nil. CO alarms stop deaths, not injury.

A CO alarm to EN 50291 will not even stop death if you don't take it out of the packet and pull the tab TO CONNECT THE BATTERY. AICO make an audio link CO alarm, which has downloadable data - useful if you want to know if you have been exposed to CO.

We'd urge landlords to make sure they provide electric cookers for their tenants. See the CLASP report clasp.ngo/wp-content/upl… ‘It was highlighted by several medical doctors that long-term exposure to low levels of CO can increase chances of dementia and, possibly, Parkinsonism'

EU report that gas stoves kill 40,000 in EU per year research.birmingham.ac.uk/en/clippings/g… and yet the EU didn't even look a carbon monoxide!

Do you know that the gas emergency service has no legal duty to test the air/emissions from gas appliances for the deadly gas carbon monoxide? Less than 2% of CO in the air can kill in under three minutes. CO cannot be sensed using human senses. Email [email protected]

mytimesnow.com/news/lifestyle… Thankfully in the UK gas geysers in showers or bathrooms (i.e. tiny spaces with little ventilation) are now rare. They can be lethal. Does anyone know how to get in touch with the Indian government to issue warnings and hopefully ban these deadly geysers?

Trump is once again trying to flood Britain with chlorinated chicken. Absolutely disgusting. I just signed the petition calling on all major supermarkets to rule out stocking the stuff. Sign here if you agree! 38d.gs/jkj1

🚨 An undercover sting just exposed alarming loopholes in Westminster’s weak lobbying system: a fake Chinese company bought meetings with ministers and MPs, and it may not have even broken any rules! ✍️ Sign you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/stop… via 38 Degrees Please sign. I have.
