Dangers of Lead-Based Paint

Lead is highly toxic, especially to young children. When absorbed into the body it can cause damage to the brain and other vital organs, like kidneys, nerves and blood. It can also cause behavioral issues, learning disabilities, seizures, and death in extreme cases. Children typically become lead poisoned by putting their hands or other lead-contaminated objects into their mouths, eating paint chips or playing in lead-contaminated soil.

Environmental Dangers

Lead damages soil by hindering the breakdown of inorganic soil fragments, making soil more soluble and more readily available to be taken up by plants. Plants will absorb the lead from the soil and retain it within their roots. Lead pollution reduces the surface of the leaf and prevents light from reaching it, reducing the rate of photosynthesis and causing premature aging.

Animals can be affected by lead just like humans. Lead poisoning damages an animal's central nervous system and inhibits the ability to synthesize red blood cells. Consuming 2-8 mg of lead over an extended period of time will cause death in most animals. Grazing animals who consume forage and feed are directly affected by airborne lead and indirectly affected through the lead in plants' roots.
