Indoor Cleaning Products
This is a photo taken in a Lower East Side supermarket. The girls in the Girls Gone Green program at the Lower East Side Girls Club went to the super market to see how many toxic cleaning products versus how many environmentally friendly products the stores displayed. These cleaning products have volatile organic compounds, which are liquid solvents that evaporate rapidly in at room temperature. When people clean their houses with these products they breathe in the toxic chemicals. As you can see in the picture the supermarket has more toxic cleaning products than non-toxic.
