I love NYC. This city never sleeps; here always happens something interesting. I even dare to say that everything starts here in New York City. Ok, maybe not everything but at least majority of things.
Recently, I have occasion to hear a live comment spoken by Erin Brockovich who alongside with Safer Chemicals Healthy Families and Dr Greene are leading partners in the Seven Generation’s campaign called “Crawl to Action”.
What do they want to achieve? They want to change the US law in order to get rid of hazardous chemicals in the cleaning products.
I am coming from Poland, and a few days ago I have talked with my friend Monika about the report which I am about to publish. This report tries to convince people why we should use green cleaning products. Each time Monika has visited us, she was surprised how good the local cleaning products are.
In the European Union the standards about permitting chemical products into the market are much higher than in the United States. It is estimated that about 80,000 types of chemicals are used in the production of shampoos, washing powders and other cleaning products whereas only 200 are really safe for people. Of course, the cleaning here is a lot easier at the cost of safety.
As a cleaning expert, I have changed my regular cleaning products into natural ones a long time ago. I am too busy to make my own natural cleaning products. However, thanks to Seven Generation I know that when I clean I don’t harm environment and myself.
And what cleaning products do You like to use?
