We gotta open up our eyes. If it isn't biodegradable, organic, or made from earth pigments and dyes and things like that...... it's probably not a good idea..........

ohhh see I always thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to buy old furniture from the thrift store because it is the green thing to do. However, this makes me think it's prolly more dangerous... I should just buy new unpainted stuff with organic coverings, properly responsibly forested!

@DEBS1980 Yea , I bought a matress , a Sealy . It cost 2 grand . I was already on the phone the morning after trying to get Mattress Firm to take the thing back . It took 2 weeks , but I got my money back . It took over a month with every window open to air out the bedroom enough to sleep in . This is after the matress was gone ! My friend said he smelled chlorine when he walked in our house , he thought we had a pool ! SIDS is now thought to be connected to flame retardants .

Thanks for all this important information. Its imperative to educate everyone, what this government is hiding but using as well to excusably eliminate subjects.
