because most combustible gas meters are oxygen dependent and will not provide reliable readings in an oxygen deficient atmosphere
Because there are more volcanoes which bursts when our earth becomes warm and losses the atmospheric oxygen content.
1. Oxygen Content 2. Flammable Hazard 3. Toxic Materials
The hazard warning label for oxygen is "Oxidizing Gas." This label indicates that oxygen can accelerate the combustion of other materials and poses a fire hazard. It is important to handle oxygen with care to prevent accidents.
Yes, in many ways home oxygen equipment may prove dangerous as a fire hazard. The equipment has to be handled with care and only for certain specified purposes. Lubricants, oils, greases or general atmospheric debris is a potential fire hazard with oxygen equipment. The user has to avoid contacting even oil-based lotions and balms.

"An increase in atmospheric oxygen"An increase in atmospheric oxygen
The bulk of atmospheric oxygen originates from photosynthesis by plants and phytoplankton in the oceans.
In the troposphere, atmospheric oxygen consists of molecules of O2, each containing two oxygen atoms.
The hazard warning label for oxygen is a green and white label with the word "OXYGEN" written in black letters. This label indicates that the substance is an oxidizing gas that can enhance combustion and pose a fire hazard.
Photosynthetic bacteria are thought to have significantly increased the oxygen content in the atmosphere of the early Earth. Through the process of photosynthesis, these bacteria produced oxygen as a byproduct, leading to a rise in atmospheric oxygen levels over time.
many combustible gas indicators and explosion meters require oxygen for proper operation (generally 10- to 30-percent oxygen by volume)
An oxygen-deficient atmosphere is one that has lower than normal levels of oxygen needed to sustain human life. This can occur in confined spaces where oxygen is being consumed or displaced by other gases, posing a serious health hazard. In such conditions, individuals may experience dizziness, difficulty breathing, and loss of consciousness.
Anaerobic bacteria are organisms that are killed by atmospheric oxygen. They thrive in environments without oxygen, and exposure to oxygen can be lethal for them.
