Health problems from indoor pollution today:
- Blurry Vision
- Chest Pains
- Coughing
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Irritated Eyes
- Migraines
- Nausea
- Ringing Ear
- Sore Throat
This concern has to do with non-smokers rights, something that unfortunately does not cover multi-housing structures such as apartments, condos & so on. I have been living at the South 67 Condos since August of 2015 & have been ill from indoor pollution nearly every day for 2 years straight. The police unfortunately won't deal with indoor smoking, the building management is limited in what he (Charles Blackwood) can do which really isn't sufficient in getting the problem resolved, the HOA won't even listen to this problem & the only option I'm being given (a lawsuit against those responsible) I don't have the money to go through with. I was left with trying to take care of the problem myself, which only caused a huge issue where nearly everybody in the building now discriminates against me in response to my fight for my rights as a non-smoker; at this point we are looking for another place to move to to get out of this hostile health hazard. This isn't the first place I've lived at that has had the problem either; the last 4 apartments I lived in had the same issue. I've tried making a petition on iPetitions.com directed at the senate to try & push for some proper protection for non-smokers rights, however have had very little luck in gaining signatures (most likely just because people don't know about it). I implore you; if there is anything to can do to push for decent protection for non-smokers, any attempt to make this a reality would be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE: I ended up sending an email to Charles after this considering he never responded to the last one sent last week & also sent him a text seeing as I haven't been getting responses back to text lately either. In the text I stated that I would be calling him today to discuss this issue if I didn't get a response back (this is to make sure he hasn't just blocked me). If I don't get a hold of him after the phone call, then I might just file that review on PMS with the BBB.
UPDATE: I noticed I made an error in that contact to Orrin Hatch, looks like I said I moved in in 2015 rather than 2013. Well it stated that I've " been ill from indoor pollution nearly every day for 2 years straight", so maybe he'll understand that was a typo. I've done what I can in regards to this issue at this point, now I'm going to pray that he takes it to heart & tries to better protection of non-smoker rights in Utah. I think I'm going to post an update regarding this on the petition I have on iPetitions also.
UPDATE: The pollution has increased to what would seem a "chemical" level, it's strong enough that I haven't been able to stop coughing since I woke up. Charles seems to be aware that of the fact that I contacted Senator Hatch this morning since he did response to the text, perhaps he said something to the usual culprits in this problem & this is their retaliation on the matter.
UPDATE: Started smelling cigarette smoke again about 11:55 AM. I think it's time to start using noise pollution again as a deterrent seeing as it seems to be one of the few things that does work against E26.
