Some Conventional Floor Wash & Cleaner Are Bad for The Environment
We don’t usually think that household cleaners such as floor wash, detergent, soaps etc are pollutants. We use them in the confines of our homes to make it clean and sparkle. The same cleaners we use to sanitise, whiten, wash dishes, clothes and degrease can give detrimental effects to nature. These toxic chemicals can lead to pollution and waste such as:
- Air Pollution
VOC, also known as Volatile Organic Compound contained in cleaning products reduces indoor air quality and adds to outdoor smog. In concentrated form, ammonia can also cause severe damage to your nose, throat, and lungs. - Water Pollution
Nitrogen, phosphorus and ammonia are dangerous water contaminants in large quantities. When these pollutants enter the waterways, it accelerates water plants life cycles, causing them to die off in large quantities. This leads to mass growth of algae. Then, the water animals and its inhabitants will die off as well.
