You know that good, healthy feeling you get when you've just cleaned house? Sorry to spoil it, but you may have just made your home dirtier.
Think of it this way. You wouldn't let your kids play with toxic chemicals, so why would you let the baby crawl over a floor that's just been wiped with them? That's much more dangerous than the orange juice that was just there.
How dangerous? Just take a look at these statistics.
•Over 90% of poison exposures happen at home.
•Common bleach is the #1 household chemical involved in poisoning.
•Organic pollutants, found in many common cleaners and even air fresheners, are 2 to 5 times higher inside your home than out.
•A person who spends 15 minutes cleaning scale off shower walls could inhale three times the "acute one-hour exposure limit" for glycol ether-containing products set by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment.
•Common cleaners give off fumes that have been linked to increasing the risk of your kids developing asthma, the most common serious chronic childhood disease.
•1 in 13 school-aged children has asthma. Rates in children under five have increased more than 160% from 1980 – 1994.
•Children are highly vulnerable to chemical toxicants. Pound for pound of body weight, children drink more water, eat more food and breathe more air than adults. The implication of this is that children will have substantially heavier exposures than adults to any toxicants that are present in water, food or air.
•If your home is anything like the average U.S. home, you generate more than 20 pounds of household hazardous waste each year (the EPA designates toilet cleaners, tub and tile cleaners, oven cleaners, and bleach as hazardous waste).

What's so great about Basic H2?

BASIC H2™ ORGANIC SUPER CLEANING CONCENTRATE
“If it’s safe in water, it’s safe in Basic H2™”
• Biodegradable
• Non-Polluting
• Phosphate-free
• Not a soap
• Non-toxic
• Non-irritating
• Non-flammable
Yes, a 16 ounce (473 ml) bottle costs you $10.75 CDN (plus shipping and taxes) $10.35USD
BUT...
2 oz of Basic H2 is equivalent to 728, yes 728 bottles of Windex. Remember the bottle has 16 ounces in it. No for real! Did I just hear you say CHA-CHING??
You can use Basic H2 to clean your engine (okay, well your hubby can do it for you):
30 mL in 3.8 L (1 oz in 1 US gallon) of water. Will not affect paint, gaskets or insulating material. For best results, clean when the engine is hot (ignition system will dry quickly).
Or as gentle as cleaning your fruits and vegetables:
1.25 mL (1/4 teaspoon) in a large basin of water. Wash, then rinse thoroughly with water to remove residues of sprays and grime. To crisp lettuce, use 1 or 2 drops in a bowl of water.
AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN! You will be amazed at how much money your are wasting on your current cleaners! Seriously!
Basic H2™ is the most economical and versatile cleaner you can buy. Each bottle makes about 380 times its volume of general cleaning solution.
Honestly, you are throwing your money away if you are using anything else.
Let's pretend you only use it to replace your Windex...16 oz of Basic H2 will make you 5,824 bottles of Windex!!!! So if you estimate a bottle of Windex at let's say $3 (pretend you buy it on sale) each your little investment is worth HOW MUCH??? Yeah, do the math...
This Superconcentrate Can Save You up to $12,000
The one and only Basic H2® is a versatile, superconcentrated cleaner witha thousand uses. Ninety-nine percent natural and 100% powerful, Basic H2 replaces all the cleaners you’re probably buying now—window cleaners, all-purpose cleaners, degreasers, floor cleaners, tub and tile cleaners, and more—saving you money and space. Get Clean Basic H2 is the ultimate superconcentrated cleaner! Look how much you would have to spend to get the equivalent cleaning uses! To get the same amount of clean as one 16-ounce bottle of Basic H2, you would have to spend:
• Nearly $482 for the equivalent amount of all-purpose cleaner
• $12,250 for the equivalent amount of window cleaner
• $144 for the equivalent amount of degreaser

Seriously...
Oh I haven't even mentioned the ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT of all of those empty Windex bottles. Okay, I did now.
But seriously...
I will order you some today...just say the word!
And with all the money you save you can treat yourself to a set of spray bottles and maybe a trip somewhere warmer than this freaking country
Start planning that vacation today!

Green Goes With Everything
Just like that a simple enough statement.
Green is a colour
Green is a movement
Green is a lifestyle
Blue and green should always be seen.
Sometimes I just like sharing, learnt that in kindergarten.
Peace out.
