Simple Steps to a Greener Home with Danny Seo
Plant a plant: It helps fight pollution indoors.
Remove Aerosol Sprays: they release propellants into the air such as isobutene, which is the equivalent of light fluid.
Replace Light bulbs: replace your regular light bulbs with Compact Fluorescent liht bulbs (CFLs). They are 4 times more efficient than icandescents and last up to 10 times longer.
Sleep Well: Choose natural mattresses and sheets to avoid exposing your body to any chemical residue possibly left over from the manufacturing process.
Filter Your Vacuum: ensure your vacuum is sealed and equippped with a HEPA filter to hel keep dust out of your air.
Use Low-VOC or No-VOC paint: indoor air is up to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air. Using low-VOC or no-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) paint can improve indoor air quality.
Tap Your Tap: Filter your tap water so you’re not consuming harmful levels of lead.
Open Up Windows: Help circulate fresh air throughout your home. Indoor air can contain higher concentrations of pesticides than outside air.
Give Composting A Go: It’s a simple and effective way to reduce what goes to the landfill.
Safely Clean Your Shower: Many shower cleaners contain harsh chemicals that leave a residue. When you or your child take a bath, you are literally soaking in those chemicals.

Q. What does natural mean?
“Currently, there is no industry standard definition for natural cleaners. To create Green Works™ natural cleaners we set ourselves a very stringent standard. The ingredients must come from renewable resources, be biodegradable and free of petrochemicals. Green Works™ cleaners are at least 99% natural. In certain cases we had to use synthetic ingredients, like the preservative and green colorant. But we’re working hard to develop natural alternatives so the entire line can be 100% natural.”
What happens when you trade in all your traditional cleaners for GreenWorks natural cleaners for 30 days? Follow the video diaries of three busy moms as they embark on their own journey to natural.
MaryRose
Life in MaryRose’s small town is anything but slow. Not with two small boys (read: dirty) to keep up with. A high school science teacher turned stay-at-home mom, MaryRose loves a good project and is looking forward to the next 30 days.

Pam
Pam is a single-mom who just started a demanding MBA program (what was she thinking?) She doesn’t consider herself natural, but she’s willing to try natural cleaners for her new baby daughter. That is, if she isn’t too tired to pick up a sponge.

Shelley
Meet Shelley, a self-described “outdoors girl”. She’s happiest camping, hiking, fishing or swimming with her husband, daughter and dog. She took on this challenge because creating a safe and healthy environment for her daughter and dog is really important to her.
