Green Cleaning

August 27, 2007

We just had our first child and came across some pretty scary info from the EPA in the process of safety-proofing our home. According to their site indoor air pollution is up to five times worse than being outdoors. Cleaning products that contain Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) can cause skin and eye irritation, reproductive disorders, and even cancer. There are plenty of green cleaning products on the market that are similarly priced, just as effective, and much safer for us and the environment.
