Cleaning produces unclean things.
What exactly does that mean? I'll explain. You see, cleaning chemicals do a whole multitude of things. They break up grease, stains. They can kill viruses, bacteria, molds, and fungus. They can make a surface shine, while protecting it. Most even smell pretty good. But we don't really consider what happens to all that gunk that gets washed or thrown away.
Here's my point. Think of the impact you are making when you use certain cleaning products like bleach, or ammonia. Be wary of where you dump slop buckets. Green products work very well, they're not like they used to be. Many are also powerful anti-microbial agents, too. Our green cleaner kills E. Coli, Staph, and HIV just to name a few unsavory organisms.
You can get your house clean with minimal, or no impact to the environment. Use non-phosphate soaps. Try cleaners that have peroxide as an active ingredient. Don't use paper towels- use rags that you can utilize again. Simple steps, I know, but we can all do them.
