Earth friendly Information

You ever wonder what chemicals are contained in our products??? Well, ever since my whole Cancer situation I have become increasingly AWARE of what exactly is in my environment.
For instance

Air Freshener----Did you know that your basic Lysol can contains about 80% Ethanol (the same stuff we use for GAS in our cars)hmmmm
Paints- I DID NOT know that traditional paints have been linked to a variety of health effects including eye, nose and throat irritation; dizziness; liver, kidney and central nervous system damage and even cancer.
Fruits and Veggies - OUR main source of nutritional foods are being poisoned with harmful pesticides and hormones!!!!
OK ----So lots of scary info.. So I have been searching for what works ??? What is the alternative???
Here are some links that might be helpful to you all...

http://www.mythicpaint.com/
www.dappiebaby.com
www.anniesbuyingclub.com

I will keep you all posted on my findings!!
