njchica, it is clear if you are ever around a pool you can smell clorine and yes the clorine is in the air, and yes you are breathing it in. and yes it can and does cause breathing problems.....and no it is not good for you. So you think that clorine it isn't in the air around a pool?



Chippp, I have a degree in science. I don't need you to explain chlorine to me. You stated that chlorine gas causes cosmetic products to become toxic and I was just stating that chlorine gas in itself is toxic. If you had chlorine gas all over your backyard, you'd have more to worry about than what kind of lotion you had on your face.

As for organic compounds, that is anything containing carbon. All living matter contains carbon, you eat carbohydrates, methane and butane are in the air.... Why would one fear organic compounds?

Your statement was pretty vague and, as someone who understands science, I didn't buy it. Your second post helps to clarify your point somewhat.
