What does green mean?
In a nutshell, green means having the lowest possible negative impact on the environment. A product is judged from cradle to grave – from
(1) the sourcing of raw materials (e.g. wood from sustainable forests, no toxins, fair trade),
(2) transportation distances and methods,
(3) the impact on the environment during manufacture (emissions, pollution),
(4) the impact on air, water, soil, nature in general during use,
(5) the impact when it is thrown away (can it be recycled, reused, will it pollute?).
Most carpet cleaners are designed to over power the stain itself; they accomplish the task by using highly toxic substances. Some include perchlorethylene, a known carcinogen that damages liver, kidney and nervous system damage; and ammonium hydroxide, a corrosive, extremely irritable to eyes, skin and respiratory passages.
Laundry detergents contain phosphorus, enzymes, ammonia, naphthalene, phenol, sodium nitilotriacetate and countless other chemicals. These substances can cause rashes, itches, allergies, sinus problems and more. The residue left on your clothes, bed sheets, etc. is absorbed through your skin, as is everything else you touch.
Most Dishwashing products contain chlorine in a dry form that is highly concentrated. The #1 cause of household poisoning is dish detergent. Dishwashing liquids are labeled "harmful if swallowed." Each time you wash your dishes, some residue is left on them, which accumulates with each washing. Your food picks up part of the residue.
Toilet cleaners usually contain hydrochloric acid, a highly corrosive irritant to both skin and eyes that damages kidneys and liver; and hypochlorite bleach, a corrosive irritant that can burn eyes, skin and respiratory tract. They can also cause pulmonary edema, vomiting or coma if ingested. Some lime removers contain highly caustic sodium hypochlorite and phosphoric acid which are very irritating to lungs and dangerous for people with asthma and heart disease.
