Honestly, I don’t think cleaning products are that bad as long as you can recycle the container

Thanks for this! I use green cleaning in my home and have found it is CHEAPER to make my own cleaning products! I've started to get concerned about what my daughter's school is using to clean, esp. in light of stepped up disinfection for H1N1 prevention. Did some research and found this great report from the Environmental Working Group: EWG Report on Green Schools

I use all natural ingredient cleaners and personal items. It took me a while to find the ones that work, and are at comparable if not better prices.
