CO Fact

The Silent Killer

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless but toxic gas.

However, carbon monoxide is the most toxic substance you’ll come into contact with within your daily life. In your home, at work, garage, vehicle or boat.

Because it is impossible to see, taste or smell the toxic fumes, CO can kill you without your notice.

Advocacy Wishes

Through the efforts of the Foundation we wish:

  1. The Wish….that teenagers will become aware of the potential for CO intoxication.
  2. The Wish….that schools will integrate this awareness into their curriculum.
  3. The Wish….that parents will take measures to prevent and avoid any other senseless death through frequent checks of their families' cars.
  4. The Wish…that when someday you go to purchase a car, we are not only offered upgrades with sunroofs and tinted windows…but that we are given a battery operated CO monitor on a key ring, as part of that vehicle's purchase!
