When someone says “not really” to the question: Do you try to live a green lifestyle?, they often end with “but I did just buy some green cleaning products.” Many times they are not sure exactly why they made this choice over the conventional kind, which is living proof that the buzz all about green has entered into the unconscious mind of the general population. Green cleaning may be trendy but it is definitely not a fad. Green cleaning is here to stay simply because it is healthier for you and our earth.
Which would you rather have come in contact with your body and enter the air that you breathe in your home? A plant derivative or a potentially cancer causing synthetic chemical? Which would you rather have drain into the ground and enter your water system? A substance that naturally becomes a part of the earth or one that retains its toxic properties? With choices like that, paying a little bit more for an eco friendly cleaning product becomes desirable, wouldn’t you say? Handy on Snappy Green’s Resources page, is this toxin guide that identifies the dangers lurking in your common household cleaners. Get educated. Your family is worth it.
