What's happening? The lead can leak out and harm the earth and water around us.

Does this affect me? If you own one of these lights in Sweden, Germany or Latvia, it could be bad for the planet.

What should I do? Stop using it and ask a pharmacist or doctor if you need help finding a safe replacement.
