What
Does Eco Friendly Cleaning Mean?
Green cleaning is not just a gimmick or a marketing ploy.
It means using environmentally preferable products and services that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the
environment. Green cleaning is about providing, maintaining and improving cleanliness and sustaining pollution control while
protecting individuals and the environment from the risks posed by hazardous cleaning supplies and processes. Green cleaning
products should reduce waste, the risks to your health and of course the impact on the environment
Reason T Go Green
Adopting environmentally friendly and energy efficient personal practices provides
numerous benefits to you who are become socially responsible. The federal government's Executive Order #1301 defines green
products as "environmentally preferable" products and services that "have a lesser or reduced effect on human
health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose.” If you go
to your cupboard and pick up a cleaner, any cleaner, you might see it contains chlorine, phenol, ammonia or formaldehyde.
Do you want these potentially toxic chemicals in your home? According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, the air inside
a typical home is approximately 2 to 5 times more polluted than the air just outside and in extreme cases 100 times more contaminated
– largely because of household cleaners and pesticides. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ranks indoor
air quality among the top five environmental risks and links it, in part, to cleaning product exposure.
Cleaning products with reduced health, safety, and environmental impacts are readily available and are being used
successfully in both public and private settings. Many companies and households see changing from traditional cleaning
products to “green” cleaning products as a necessary part of everyday living. There can be few arguments against
using non-toxic and biodegradable cleaning products in the home and office. It is important for our health and the health
of our planet. Green products are healthier, in the long term. Injuries caused because of harsh and toxic chemicals include:
40% involve eye irritation and burns
35% involve skin irritation and burns
12% involve breathing chemical fumes
The Consumer Product Safety Commission has linked 150 chemicals that are usually found in homes with ailments like allergies,
birth defects, breast cancer, prostate cancer, declining sperm counts, and psychological abnormalities.
