Did you know that cleaning our offices, schools, child care centres, stores and warehouses can contribute to Global Warming and should be reviewed as we seek to become more green and sustainable?\"orangutan1\"<\/p>\n

And do you know that cleaning our offices, schools, child care centres, stores and warehouses is most likely harming people?<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s be clear on the problem first.<\/h3>\n

Most cleaning products are transported diluted.\u00a0 Most cleaning products contain 90% or more water.\u00a0Even those products that claim to be concentrated often contain more than 50% water.<\/p>\n

An average large company in Australia can use up to 400,000 litres of cleaning products each year. This 400,000 litres of cleaning products can contain up to least 360,000 litres of water.<\/p>\n

Just think about the carbon used to transport all that water round Australia each and every year and that\u2019s just for one company\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"Yet the thing is cleaning products can be diluted using tap water at the point where the products are used \u2013 saving 90% or more of the planet warming CO2 being unnecessarily pumped out.\u00a0 Earth Renewable is a range of super-concentrated cleaning products that are diluted at point of use at a ratio of 1 part cleaning chemical to 92 parts tap water.<\/p>\n

Are you using super concentrated cleaning products or are you contributing to global warming for no good reason?<\/p>\n

The answer is Earth Renewable but first what about the 10% of the cleaning product that is not water\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>

Green Cleaning: By the Numbers<\/h2>\n

17,000:<\/strong> the number of petrochemicals available for use in commercial cleaning products, only 30 percent of which have been tested for exposure to human health and the environment.\u00a0 And many of the ones that have been tested are toxic or carcinogenic. (source US EPA)<\/p>\n

63:<\/strong> the number of synthetic chemicals found in the average office. \u00a0(source US EPA)<\/p>\n

100:<\/strong> the number of times higher that indoor office air pollution levels can be above outdoor air \"\" pollution levels, according to US EPA figures. The majority of indoor office air pollution comes from volatile organic compounds released into the air when toxic cleaning products are used. (source US EPA)<\/p>\n

275:<\/strong> the number of active ingredients in antimicrobials used for cleaning that the US EPA classifies as pesticides or poisons because they are designed to kill microbes. And these are used to clean surfaces that you touch in the office every day. (source US EPA)<\/p>\n

As well as this horror story, most cleaning products are jam packed with volatile organic compounds (VOCs).\u00a0 VOCs are released into the air when the product is used \u2013 and they stay there.\u00a0 This is a major contributor to indoor air pollution which worsens asthma, causes skin and lung irritations and makes people feel generally unwell.<\/p>\n
