Toxic-Free Future eyehaireyo kuhangaho eby‘omumaisho ebiine amagara marungi barikutunguura okukoresa ebintu ebiine oburinzi, emibazi n‘enkora kurabira omu kucondooza kw‘omurembe, okuhabura, okutebeekanisa abantu baingi n‘okwejumba kw‘abaguzi.
Dichloromethane ebaire neekwatagana n’ebintu ebiine akakwate n’amagara nk’endwara ya kansa, obutwa bw’ensigo n’ebihaha, nangwa n’okufa. Ekitongore ky’okurinda eby’obuhangwa kikaba nikimanya akabi aka kumara emyaka makumi, n’okufa kw’abantu 85 ahagati ya 1980 na 2018.
N’obu haraabe hariho emiringo endiijo erimu oburinzi n’obuhame ngu methylene chloride neebaasa kwita juba, EPA neekyerererwa omu muringo gw’obusaasi kugira eki yaakora aha mubazi ogu ogw’akabi.
EPA eherize kutaho ekiragiro ekirikuzibira bingi “okukora, okukora, n’okujanjaaza methylene chloride ahabw’abakozesa boona n’ebigyendererwa ebingi eby’amakorero n’eby’obushuubuzi,” hamwe n’okuha amakorero agamwe n’ebitongore bya gavumenti obugabe bw’okubikora kumara akaire kakye.
Tutegyereize obwire buraingwa ekirikumara. Okurinda abakozi n’abantu boona, nyabura we gabura ekitongore ky’okurinda eby’obuhangwa (EPA) kuhendera ebiragiro bya methylene chloride ahonaaho okuzibira okukoresa omubazi ogu ogw’akabi okurikukirayo, ku kiraabe kitari kyona.
