First, let's define what a Green cleaning product is:
What's inside: A green cleaning product is free of petrochemicals, caustics, chlorine, and ammonia.
What's outside: It is packaged in recyclable material by workers who are paid a living wage in clean, safe conditions.
Production considerations: Green products are manufactured in countries with ethical employment standards. Local is always the best environmental choice.
Greenwasher #1: Method Cleaning products use petrochemicals. The hand wash in particular lists benzophenone, a petroleum derived chemical. The wipes package says it is made in China, a country known for its human rights violations. The wipes package does not indicate recycling instructions. Heavy weight plastic bags are hard to recycle in many parts of the US.
