    Green cleaning program is a healthier option for both human and the earth. During green cleaning process, low allergenic, non-toxic, and biodegradable cleaning agents are used. This process can reduce exposure to toxic and dangerous chemicals. With fewer harmful products being released into the environment, green cleaning program can improve the overall indoor air quality and reduce certain health risks. 

    As an ecologically-friendly program, green cleaning can do multiple jobs as well as traditional cleaning products, but with less cost. A well-designed green cleaning program can reduce overall cleaning costs. Green cleaning products are gaining popularity worldwide. With the rapid development of chemical technology and science, it is possible to develop more cleaning products not only with effective cleaning ability but also with non-harmful ingredients.

    I've been very interested in the research done about the human microbiome for the past 5 years.  Long story short, while trying to cure bad cases of c-diff, they discovered that by transferring fecal matter from one person to another, they can change the microbiome and cure the disease.  They also discovered that the recipient would also gain or lose weight to match the donor's profile. You heard it right, your microbiome affects your weight and your health.  

     

    Why am I saying this? Because they also shown that conventional cleaning products can have a harmful effect on the microbiome.  Here is an interesting article about it: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/09/180917082435.htm.  

     

    Conventional household cleaners could be making children overweight by altering their gut microbiota.  The good news:  they did not find the same association with green products.  Harmful chemical kills beneficial bacteria that helps us staying healthy.  By using green products, you protect your friendly bacteria.

     

     

    Do you suffer from allergies?  Allergies are rampant nowadays (https://www.aafa.org/allergy-facts/).  Conventional cleaning products are known to worsen allergies ( such as chlorine).  Green products do not have the same effects unless you are allergic to green products ingredients (citrus for example) however, you can easily identify the culprit and replace it.

     

    If conventional products are carcinogens, neurotoxins, mutagens, teratogens, endocrine disrupters, toxic, flammable etc.. and green products are therapeutics … the choice is not hard to make. Choose your cleaning services here

    Implementing green cleaning is very positive, not only for businesses, but the environment also. There  is a lot of benefits from green cleaning. Safer products, better air quality, less expensive, no toxic fumes and no gloves required. Also, a lot of products are biodegradable and are safe around kids and pets.

    I feel confident implementing green cleaning into my daily work routine. I also would suggest other business owners to do the same and follow my footsteps of going green. #Come clean, IKEA, and The Hershey Company are all advocates to promoting green cleaning.

    Green cleaning is when we use products that are safe for the environment and do not emit any pollutants when used. It is important to use green cleaning not only for the environment and our planet but for the health of our customers, employees, and the general public. 

    Having a toddler and baby at home, we wanted to make sure the products we were using in our home were safe. There are many surfaces little fingers and mouths can touch in your house and knowing that the cleaning products you are using are non-toxic will put your mind at ease.

    Pregnant women and children that are five years old and younger are very susceptible to harmful chemicals in the air. When making the transition from using traditional cleaners to environmentally friendly ones, you’re creating a much safer atmosphere for the whole family. 

    You can reduce pollutants in your home by better insulation and by using the safest most natural ingredients when cleaning.

    I am starting to implement a green cleaning program by using only environmentally safe chemicals.  There is no point in damaging an already damaged ecosystem.   I will not only be using environmentally safe chemicals on my contracts, but I will be using them at home as well.  It is a good habit to get into.  I will offer a discount if someone personally requests that I use environmentally friendly cleaning chemicals. 

    I will be proud to represent a green cleaning company.   As an owner of two cats, I do not want toxic chemicals laying around.  Animals are like children, they get into whatever they want, whenever they want.   Toxic chemicals are dangerous not just for animals, but for people.  Being an IJCSA Green Cleaning Company will be a very good decision for me to continue forward with my business goals.

    Representing an IJCSA Green Cleaning Company makes me look and feel like a more responsible business owner.  It shows my beliefs in ensuring there is no additional damage done to the ecosystem.  All it takes is one person to put their foot down and stand up against additional damage to the environment.  If there is a way to fix the ecosystem, it would be to recycle and use green cleaning solutions.  I believe Green Cleaning is the way to go, less pollution and less dangerous chemicals.

    It is vital to be aware of anything that is potentially dangerous at home or at work. If your job comes with anything that puts you at a greater risk, Knowledge is truly power, especially when it is something so simple to over look.

    we have all had cuts, scrapes or shots and bled at some point in our lives, we become accustom to what blood is, it is a very simple thing to over look, just like using electricity in our every day lives. We can for get how dangerous it is. it is easy to not shake hands with someone when you see they are sick, but easy to forget that we can not see blood born pathogens, so not washing your hands after cleaning could put other at risk as well. 

    Knowing how to clean and dispose of blood or any body fluids is the first line of defense to prevent you or anyone else from preventable danger. Just like driving a car can be dangerous, there are many ways to prevent unnecessary accidents, We should Always pay attention to what you are doing. We should never just become complacent. When we do we may inadvertently hurt ourselves or others.
