I recently received an email from a representative of Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC) talking about the dangers posed by toxic ingredients in common household cleaning products.
To encourage people to get toxic cleaners out of their homes, HUMC started a program called Greening the Cleaning(R) that promotes the adoption of naturally-derived, affordable, safer and more eco-friendly household cleaning products.
The Medical Center's list of alternative Green cleaners includes:
- Thymes Frasier Fir cleaner for all-purpose tasks ($9 via Amazon.com)
- Mrs. Meyer's Automatic Dishwashing Liquid ($6.39 - $7.73 via Drugstore.com)- Greening the Cleaning's own Citrus Sage Glass & Window Cleaner ($4.95 via manufacturer's website). Apparently all profits from sales of Greening the Cleaning products go to support the the Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with Cancer in Ribera, NM.
- Make-your-own oven cleaner recipe concocted from baking soda, dishwashing liquid and a little water.
