SULFUR DIOXIDE

Sulfur dioxide is a by-product of the burning (combustion) of fossil fuels, which include coal, petroleum, kerosone, propane and oil. Vision difficulty and irritability as well as diminished breathing capacity and worsening of lung and heart disease may result from sulphur dioxide fumes. If you use any appliances that burn fossil fuels, make certain that there is adequate ventilation in the room. For example, open a window a crack for fresh air. Sulfur dioxide contributes to acid rain.
