According to the Center for Disease Control, childhood lead poisoning is a major environmental health problem in the United States. Approximately half a million children younger than six years of age in the United States have blood lead levels at a level high enough to adversely affect their intelligence, behavior and development. A major source of lead exposure among U.S. children is lead based paint and lead contaminated dust found in deteriorated buildings.
