- Page 43 Agency Regulatory Notices What does the environmental labeling involve? The environmental demands have been developed by Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation). These demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things.
- Page 44 Agency Regulatory Notices the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative*1 processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.
- Page 45 Agency Regulatory Notices Lead:*2* Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning.
