Keeping Your House Clean & Green on a Budget |
|
Do you want a safer home for your family? How about a healthier planet for everyone to enjoy?
Modern synthetic cleaning products were once based on age-old formulas using natural ingredients that were passed down through the generations because the chemistry was right, but now toxic ingredients are added and we often do not know the health risks that exist. When we go back to the original naturally derived ingredients to make cleaning products ourselves, we reduce pollutants in our homes. They still clean great and save you money. Most ingredients are found right in our kitchen cupboards!
On June 30th, at our Sustainability Center, participants were provided with alternative recipes to go eco-friendly in their homes. Toxins in common household cleaning products are both terrible for human health and our ecological environment, and if enough people make the move towards non-toxic, the planet as a whole would benefit.
