Make June the month you discover a new GREEN Cleaner. There are plenty out there although they can be difficult to find. This leads us to challenge #2 for June. At your next visit to your local retailer, look around for the green cleaners, if you can't find any here's what you'll do. Once you've paid for your purchases ask to speak to the manager. (This usually freaks out the clerk a little, so keep smiling!) When the manager arrives, simply mention you couldn't find any environmentally friendly cleaners and you would like to see some available at this store. If enough of you do it, changes will occur! For every one person who speaks out, there are another 100 thinking the same thing. Yes, I have done it and the manager listens and I feel warm and fuzzy afterwards!
Why should you add a green cleaner to your shopping list???
- The Environmental Protection Agency studies indicated that indoor air pollutants may be 2-5 higher then outdoor.
- Over 150 chemicals found in the home are connected to allergies, birth defects and cancer.
- A highly toxic product known as 2-butoxyethanol used in spray cleaners has been linked to reduced sperm count in men and learning disabilities in children.
