When I switched planes in California, the airplane had a Prop 65 warning on it. I’ve seen some ridiculous things with the warnings on them. Even when it is true that a chemical contained causes cancer, the problem is that the level that causes cancer is a level that isn’t possible to attain.

The chemicals in paint cause cancer, sure. This is true to a point. If you drank a gallon a day for 75 years or work as someone who swims naked in paint to mix it.

Having rats and feeding them dosages that are hundreds of times greater than what a human would experience over their entire lives is a pretty poor way to decide if something has a cancer risk.

To give an example of how this logic works. Putting a tomatoe on your kitchen table isn’t going to break it. Putting 2000lbs of tomatoes on your kitchen table is going to probably snap it in half. Thus, you need to have a label on tomatoes that says “Tomatoes are known by the state of California to break tables.”

Add / Adhd Have more than one cause; such as chemical exposure to the mother any time after reaching child bearing age, the mother’s pharmaceutical use within a year of conceiving and minor head trauma to the child or child’s drinking of well water, even for short periods.
Crib paint ? is not an issue, just use common sense when picking a paint and for GOd’s sake avoid led at all costs.

Everything (srsly EVERY product) sold in CA has the Prop 65 warning. Lawn decor, indoor furniture, toys, paint, etc. Everything.
