Almost every Canadian has a spray can of WD-40 in the garage, but that’s about to change.
You use it to fix just about anything that needs a little lubrication, squeaky hinges, rusty bolts and even your bike chain.
Update: Thanks to @Sbhinclusion for sharing this press release from WD-40, which states that they will become compliant with th new regulation.
It’s a clickbait headline designed to anger people who can’t be bothered to actually read past the title. They’re not banning wd-40 and it will still be available after 2024
I read it. They’re banning VOC in spray cans, as if aerosol cans are suddenly to blame for smog. More political noise to appease the uneducated while accomplishing nothing of substance. Look at the shiny birdy, kids, and pay no mind to the industrial processes behind the curtain.
We already played this game in the 80s, when hair spray was supposedly causing the hole in the ozone layer. Look where it got us.
A shrinking ozone hole? https://www.nasa.gov/esnt/2022/ozone-hole-continues-shrinking-in-2022-nasa-and-noaa-scientists-say
You think that’s a bad thing?
I don’t understand this. Where did it get us?
Guess we got no hair spray?
Their logic is the same as “cigarettes are fine because other things cause lung cancer too”. Guess they would rather see everything banned all at once or nothing at all.
