Cleaning day is here!

I am starting a Products to Ban from my Home list: (oh, how I love a good list!!!)

• paper towel
• plastic water bottles
• chemical (toxic) cleaners
• phosphates
• chemical (toxic) personal products

This will, of course, be a work in progress, but now that I have made the commitment, and I have a goal, I know what my focus will be as I continue to research new product. I am so thankful for a guy who supports this move to treading more lightly, and taking our health so seriously.

Good news! By July 1, 2010 a new Canadian law will effectively ban phosphorus (phosphates) in household dishwashing detergents, laundry detergents, and other cleaning products.

What’s so bad about phosphates? TreeHugger does a great job at explaining…
