Safer cleaning supplies
The EWG has a great article about cleaning supplies in schools. They have a form letter you can send to your child’s school to encourage the school to look into safer, green certified cleaning supplies. I emailed my son’s preschool to look into this more (something I already did in 2007, but feel the need to check up on again). The report lists some of the more commonly used cleaning supplies and the number of contaminents they release into the air (Comet cleaning powder releases 146–7 of which are carcinogens!) There are also some great cleaning tips.
You got a really useful blog. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Outstanding, Hannah Christie ~ Flyttstädning
