eco-friendly cleaning

Reading a lot lately about sustainability and eco-responsibility i have decided to go on and buy my first eco friendly soap, and i might go on with the same for clothes cleaner soon.

Did you know that usual cleaning products can make our indoor air unhealthy, provoke skin, eye, and respiratory reactions, and harm the natural environment?
To slowly switch to eco friendly cleaners is one small thing we can do to stay healthy and save our planet…

* Alternet article about eco friendly cleaning products and brands.

Where to start? Here is a list of environmentally safe cleaning products easy to find in health food stores:
* Bio pac
* Ecover
* Naturally yours
* Shaklee
* Seventh generation
* Ecos

Of course, these products might be a bit more expensive than usual (and so toxic) ones. I see it as an investment for me and future generation.

My view is that if you like a product, anything from a magazine to an artist’s work, you must encourage his creator by buying of this product and making it know to people around you. If you believe in something, share about it!

    Hello there. I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your honesty and openness during this hard time in the world. It is refreshing to read your words- I agree with you completly and have based most of my art work around expressing my feelings about what is going on. I am an american in Barcelona and am surround by lots of people who (to put it nicely) do not like the U.S. It has been really hard for me to swallow all the negative comments and judgements. I have tried to take this experience and open myself up more- more to all the voices and more to my own voice. Thanks again. Peace.

    hi there,

    i must admit that in reading your post i have realized what it must be right now to be an american oversea. I guess american people will now have to face racism and discrimination everywhere around the world… these are really weird times, everything is turning upside down.

    Might peace and courage be on their way to you, do not give up!
