Whenever someone mentions hazardous waste, you most likely think of big industry, or perhaps even radioactive material that is stored in some unknown place out of harms way. But unfortunately we commonly have numerous hazardous materials in our homes.

Furthermore we actually produce 13 tons of hazardous waste every second? That amounts to over 400 million tons every year.  Presently there are over 700 man made chemicals that have been found in the human body that are not supposed to be there.  

In this episode I want to talk about common household hazardous wastes, how to handle them and even how to avoid them.

Always remember to live sustainably because this is how we build a better future.
