New Year’s resolution, no life resolution

Well I’ve long been against products tested on animals, but what many people fail to realize is that those companies also pollute the environment and are shining examples of corporate irresponsibility. I’ve decided that living chemical-free addresses all of these issues. This will entail even further changes in my consumption and lifestyle (please watch the movie in this link!). I will no longer buy off-the-shelf cleaners, but make my own with vinegar, lemon juice, baking soda and other basic ingredients. For things like laundry detergent I will continue to buy earth-friendly and health-friendly products.

It isn’t just about the animals or the environment outside. Indoor air is often more polluted. Is covering everything including your own body with toxic chemicals really the only solution to germs? We can’t resist anything anymore. Pretty soon we might be dying from a common cold! Well I don’t know, I’m not a scientist, but bacteria is a perfectly natural part of our ecosystem. That doesn’t mean bacteria is good, some isn’t, but manufactured toxic chemicals are not natural at all and we have no way to resist them.

Since health care is fast disappearing for many Americans, why contribute to our own ill health?
