Qual-Serv LLC. The Harmful Effects That Cleaning Chemicals Have On The Planet and People

29 May 2019 12:54 PM | Deleted user

 

Cleaning is done not only for the aesthetics but it is always looked as a health need. Cleanliness is synonymous with heath. Yet many of the products and methods utilized today as standard cleaning methods or choices pose a health hazard rather than preserving it. The chemicals used in mainstream cleaning products are more often selected and advertised by the efficiency with little regard to the environmental impact.

Gone unchecked the impact of everyday cleaning in our homes, businesses and industries produce waste streams that damage the environment and expose the user to harmful chemicals. Our bodies as well as the environment are not meant to handle these exposure and both react adversely to its effects.

Sickness, allergies, illnesses have all been linked to the exposure of chemicals contained in cleaning products. Our environment and the hosts of animals that share this planet continue to suffer the impact of these choices.

There is as in all things a tipping point. A moment where a normal cell becomes cancerous, a river cannot sustain life, a coral reef dies. Changing prior to the tipping point is the key. To make better choices before the damage cannot be undone.
