Ever Bird.

Made the jingle too cool. Rookie mistake.

As power outages extend, people may find themselves using portable generators for the first time. If you are a new generator owner, you may not realize how much carbon monoxide a generator can produce. It's enough carbon monoxide to kill in minutes. www.cnn.com/2026/01/26/w...

We're hiring! Take a look at the current openings at CPSC.

A tragic story out of Louisiana. As the cold weather continues, please make sure your family and friends know it is dangerous to run their portable generators indoors. www.actionnews5.com/2026/01/27/8...?

Please keep getting the word out to family and friends about carbon monoxide poisoning. www.wkrn.com/news/local-n...

Didn't need the shield and dagger. Brought them anyway.

If you've lost power and are using candles for light, make sure to keep them away from anything flammable. If you still have power and are using a space heater for extra heat, make sure it's at least 3ft away from anything flammable. www.cbsnews.com/news/power-o...

People with no snow outside, what's that like.

"Predict the weather better." Sir, we know it might not seem like it, but the CPSC social media specialist role does come with jurisdictional limits.

As you prepare for the winter storm this weekend, learn your vents! Know which ones need to remain clear to avoid a deadly buildup of carbon monoxide. If you don't know which ones are dangerous, plan to clear them all.

Flashlights (not candles). Smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. Knowing where the vents to your home are so you can clear them of snow. Do it all. We're being given so much time with this storm.

Something different.

Always plug your space heater into a wall outlet. Never plug your space heater into a power strip or extension cord.

Vent quiz!

A few people pointing out that their homes are all electric and therefore they do not need carbon monoxide alarms. Do you have a neighbor? Do you know if they own a portable generator? Do you trust them to not place it too close to your house?

Vent quiz!

Carbon monoxide deaths spike during power outages. Many times, this is due to portable generators being placed too close to people's homes or run indoors. Make sure you have working carbon monoxide alarms. Run your generator outdoors, at least 20ft away from your home.

Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now.

Tragically, we have seen incidents where people try to heat their homes using charcoal grills. Burning charcoal releases carbon monoxide. Never try to heat your home with a charcoal grill.

Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now.
