amirrockrules Proposition 65. In summary Nanny State BS. Resolution, ignore anything the state of California tells you and most of all "do not move here".
amirrockrulesProp 65 was well intentioned. But the label you see there is because the people who oppose the law have been trying to take it down by loading up the table of known carcinogens with every chemical known to man. Idea being it will be untenable to use the label if the entire periodic table is listed.
amirrockrulesVirtually all chemicals "are known to the State of California" to cause cancer, because the State of California's politicians lack any understanding of how science works. Unless something can be proven to not cause cancer, a standard that is literally impossible to meet, it will be "known to cause cancer" to the State of California.
Jaywalk3ractually it's because a number of lawyers are attacking the warning label requirements by overloading it with anything that can be remotely considered carcinogenic. The strategy is intended to make the labeling requirement so burdensome that it ends up being rescinded. As with all things, follow the money.
As someone who used to live and work in California, it is somewhat of a joke. Almost all public buildings have these notices. As does just about anything that isn't made out of the most hypoallergenic materials.
