Cleaning Supplies

The chemicals contained in most common cleaning supplies can be just as bad---if not worse---than what you're trying to remove with them. Things like phthalates and formaldehyde can pollute your indoor air quality (now worse than outdoor air quality, due mostly to cleaning supplies), are known health risks, and can be dangerous to children. Before you do away with all cleaners, however, take a look at our natural cleaning supplies. Natural cleaning supplies skip potentially harmful chemicals in favor of things like plant extracts (which have been used to clean things effectively for hundreds of years) and safe-enough-to-eat ingredients like baking soda and vinegar. Don't just pick up natural cleaning supplies, either, green your cleaning accessories too, by choosing recycled garbage bags and paper towels from Seventh Generation,  and reusable bamboo cloths.

Recycling is the reprocessing of old materials into new products, with the aims of preventing the waste of potentially useful materials, reducing the consumption of fresh raw materials, reducing energy usage, reducing air (from incineration) and water (from landfilling) pollution by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions as compared to virgin production.
Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on the planet and therefore highly sustainable. It is an incredibly versatile plant used for many everyday applications from flooring and wall paneling to paper and fabrics. Some of the processes through which Bamboo is turned from its raw form into usable products can have a negative environmental impact.
Formaldehyde is known to have a number of negative health effects, including immune-system toxicity, respiratory irritation and cancer in humans. However, it still turns up in baby bath soap, nail polish, eyelash adhesive and hair dyes as a contaminant or break-down product.
Post-consumer means any material that has been used by a consumer and then recycled for use in a new product. It is not the same as post-industrial waste, which is the reintroduction of manufacturing scraps into the manufacturing process.
