I've done many dangerous things, but where is the experience reward for breathing VOCs?
Certainly riding in a new car is not worth it, is it? Or having a "fresh-smelling" house with nice-looking furniture?
- donatj 6y agoEverything listed there is very enjoyable. New car smell has a name because people like it so much.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoSure, but I can find other enjoyable things which are not proven harmful. Not to mention the insane amount of "biocide" which happens in the process of producing a new car. I consider animals and plants to be my close relatives (and dependencies, meaning I won't live long without them), so if I can avoid money-voting for stuff which harms them, I choose that.
- edmundsauto 6y agoDumb answer, but it's simpler to not have to worry about this stuff. How you balance that with the risk is subjective, but it's not true that there is no downside to avoiding VOCs.
