Why “go green”?  Global warming is becoming more and more an inescapable fact, so to slow down this effect is one good reason – but not the only one.  Did you know there are over 75,000 registered chemicals?  And according to the EPA only a fraction of those have been tested for human health concerns!  Do you think nuclear plants are a bad idea because of hazardous waste?  The average American home generates over 25 pounds of toxic, hazardous waste each year – much of which comes from household cleaning products!  And, did you know that 9 out of every 10 suspected poison exposures occur at home with household products – and that women who work at home have a 54% higher death rate from cancer as compared to those who work away from home?  – according to a 15-yr. study presented at the Toronto Indoor Air Conference that concluded this was a direct result of the increased exposure to the toxic chemicals found in household cleaners.

 

Okay, so we know it’s a good idea to “go green” then – to not only care for our environment, but also for our own good (health)!  One of the big questions people often have next then is – how do I replace all these chemical cleaners with something that is not only green but WORKS!  When all is said and done we don’t want to give up CLEAN by going GREEN, right?!

 

Shaklee Get Clean® products are not only green, but have been proven to work as well, or better, than the chemical cleaners.  For example, their cleaning wipes were 60% more effective than Pledge Wipes® and had less streaking on windows than Windex with Vinegar Wipes®.  They also “outclean” other “green cleaners” —their Nature Bright® removed grass stains 50% better than OxiClean® and just a few drops of the Dish Wash Concentrate was 70% more effective on grease-cutting than Method® or Seventh Generation® 

 

Shaklee is the first company to be Certified – Climate Neutral – offsetting 100% of their carbon footprint on the earth!  And, everyone who purchases the Get Clean® Kit instead of the ready-to-use products they probably use, eliminates 108 pounds of packaging waste from landfills, eliminates 248 pounds of greenhouse gas – and is the equivalent as planting 10 trees!

 

 

 

 

 

 Look what 12 months of Get Clean Sales have done so far:      

 

 

•  Kept 10,230,732 pounds of packaging waste out of landfills. 
• Eliminated 23,492,792 pounds of greenhouse gas.
