Basically it is making a consumer think they are buying an eco friendly product when it may be not so. Good example is the new Clorox green works collection. They are making money off of consumers that think they are buying from a “green” company.

I regret that I fell for that, but just once. I bought a bathroom cleaner and frankly, it just wasn’t very good at all.

I think we all have Orry Main. It is with all good intentions.
Sadly, the whole living green thing is such a trend that everyone wants to make their dollar off of it.
This is why I think it is so important to be a educated consumer, esp when it comes to “green”.

I fell for that a few times myself. Then I decided my best option was to just make my own cleaning products. Now I really know what I am using.

it would probably take a bit of effort solar supply, but most people can make some simple products themselves.

With a few items you can clean your entire home. Baking soda, white vinegar and castille soap. Borax is also good for home cleaning. I like to add essential oils to my cleaning products.
