Homemade Eco Friendly Cleaning products?

I want to start cleaning my home with ecofriendly cleaning products.But what are some easy ones I can make using stuff I can find in my kitchen?Any recipes?

The Expert answers:

Well,I put together:
3/4 cup Distilled Vinegar
1 Cup water
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice,
and ½ a teaspoon of baking soda.I put it in a regular spray bottle and shake it up,and it use it to clean up around the kitchen after I spill.And around the bathroom sink and counters.
I also put a little lavender oil in the bottle to give the spray a nice scent.
And to wash my windows and mirrors,I use water and a black and white piece of newspaper,instead of Windex.I also use lemon juice to get rid of grease on pans and the inside of the oven.You can use lemon juice and baking soda in the over,the baking soda will speed up the cleaning process.

Good Luck and Good Green!

Seventh Generation cleaning products are my absolute favorite!I even use there laundry detergent!

Richard asks…

eco friendly products…?

for this project, we have to be as eco friendly as possible. the project is to sell our own products and i was thinking to get eco friendly packaging stuff. is there any place where i can get recycled or some kind of eco friendly packaging stuff?

The Expert answers:

Hi!
If you want recycled packaging, then my advice is to just take old newspaper or cardboard in your green bin or other people’s bin.
But if you want to be super eco-friendly, then my advice is to use as little or no packaging as you possibly can. Because the thing with packaging, is that whether consumers recycle it or throw it in the trash, it still damages the earth. With recycling, they have to melt the products and reshape them. That releases carbon dioxide and other harmful gases, which according to some, results in golbal warming.

Susan asks…

is there money to be made in eco-friendly products?

nowadays the new “thing” is protecting the environment, reducing pollution and our carbon footprint. wherever theres a new way of doing something, theres money to be made, right? but is it most likely that people are already doing this and by the time i have the money to do it the market will already be saturated!?

The Expert answers:

It depends on what you were thinking of doing….morrisons and tesco sell the same things and yet both still make a lot of money.
In todays society everyone is thinking about the environment…and i dont see why you shouldnt have a piece of the pie.

Good luck 🙂
