Myth. Jatropha seed oil fumes are safe for human lungs.

Fact. The native people using Jatropha oil fumes as insect repellent
always cover nose in order to avoid inhalation. Jatropha planners
claim that fumes are safe but there is no scientific study available
on this aspect. There is a need for long term studies on human beings
as well as on livestock and plants before giving green signal to its
large scale plantation and use as biodiesel.
