Hi,
Just noticed this topic

.
I am not sure what "greencleaning" is.
If it means being carefull and using the minimum amount and not using more than necessary to do the job then that's us. There are many isles in the supermarket we don't go into. We try and buy what we need, not what we have seen or ??? We seldom watch the commercial channels anyway so the impact there is minimal. The paper adds go in the bin. All the TV adds just grate so I cannot see we are influenced much by them.
We have found that using a
small percentage of the 'recommended' amount is quite sufficient for most products. A soak or a manual scrub works OK on difficult things instead of a bottle of 'stuff'. I do mechanical work so a bit of soap or detergent is usually helpfull. Not being obsessive about 'cleanliness' or 'germs' help too. Having lived in third world countries I can appreciate what can be done without. In fact I am appalled by the pressure on people there to buy products like we have here ?? On that basis I avoid most well known brands

There is a movement to direct market "green cleaning" also which I avoid. While I have no problem with local people making a profit from selling good products, I suspect the 'organisation' is the main beneficery, and the good products are selected for their appeal ! Happy to be shown my error
Cheers John
