All of us buy consumer products for our homes, offices and even for personal use. We want our houses to look spic and span, we want to be healthy, we wish our skin to be blemish free, we want our babies to smell nice and good, so we choose the products that we think can enhance our looks and make our homes clean. However, not all products are created equal – because there are those that are made with chemicals and materials that are harmful to the environment. Fortunately, more and more companies are becoming more environmentally conscious, using raw materials that will not adversely affect the health of humans and will not be harmful to the environment. Below are some items that are reputed to be environment safe and friendly.
