## Abstract

An environmental hazard warning system is provided. The environmental hazard warning system includes a data unit, a comparison unit, and an alarm unit. The data unit is capable of storing a plurality protective suit tolerance data. The comparison unit receives a portable sensor parameter signal including a portable sensor parameter from a portable sensor, and compares the portable sensor parameter with the protective suit tolerance data corresponding to the portable sensor parameter. The alarm unit transmits an alarm signal corresponding to the comparison between the portable sensor parameter and the protective suit tolerance data. The disclosure further provides an environmental hazard warning method.
