Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization Updates Resources And Awareness Links
By Thomas J. Lamb at AsbestosHUB.com | October 15, 2009
Dedicating its efforts to the memory of “June Breit and the thousands of other victims silenced by asbestos”, the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO) has released an awareness and resources update.
This update includes important excerpts from the recent statement by the US Surgeon General Steven K. Galston about National Asbestos Awareness Week. It provides several educational resources about asbestos and asbestos-related diseases, including many sites which are multilingual. Finally, the update has a section suggesting what you can do to help raise awareness about asbestos.
I suggest visiting the ADAO website for the details of the update yourself. However, the “Prevention and Advocacy” suggestions are worth repeating, here.
From the update:
SAMPLE FACEBOOK and TWITTER MESSAGE: “Asbestos is a carcinogen. Ban asbestos now. Send your Congressional Representatives a letter from www.banasbestos.us ”
Forward the www.banasbestos.us link to your contacts, post your message on FaceBook and send on Twitter. Ask your friends, families and colleagues them to send letters and messages too!
It’s an easy cut and paste to help raise awareness about this deadly substance that continues to inhabit so many of our public buildings, transportation, and even entire towns.
