EWG Newest Report on Household Cleaners & Greenwashing


EWG (Environmental Working Group) is wrapping up a study they have been researching regarding household cleaners and their effect on people and the environment.  The research that has come in so far is quite revealing, to say the least.

This study, entitled EWG Cleaning Database 2012 “Hall of Shame, has uncovered a lot of greenwashing. 

In this extensive research campaign conducted by EWG, many companies who claim to be green, safe and non-toxic have been discovered to be anything BUT what they claim to be!

Among the “Worst of the Worst”—according to EWG is…

Simple Green Concentrated All-Purpose Cleaner.  This cleaning product claims to be non-toxic and biodegradable and yet it contains 2-butoxyethanol: a solvent that can be absorbed through the skin and damage red blood cells and also irritate eyes.

Unfortunately, without much regulation oversight, companies are willing to bend the truth—reports EWG.  Consumers who believe they are using “all-natural” products are being tricked by falsified labels.  The reality is that only a very small percentage of the cleaner labeled “all-natural” truly is “all-natural”.
