January is National Radon Action Month January is National Radon Action Month, an annual observance that focuses on increasing awareness of the health risk of radon, which is the second leading cause of lung cancer. In connection with this observance, the Village of Lombard encourages residents to check the radon levels of their homes in January or during the winter months. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas emitted from the ground that is odorless, tasteless and colorless. Radon can enter a home through cracks in walls, basement floors, foundations and other openings. Although radon gas is measurable everywhere, the highest readings are commonly found in the basement and first-floor levels of homes and apartments. For more information, visit www.epa.gov/radon
