  1. If you have a whole foods store near you they will have several choices.


  2. Detergents do not reduce carbon dioxide emissions , unless they are harsh and more effective , therefore reducing the run time on your washer.

    I would pick the strongest with as much stain fighting enzymes as possible , with the shortest cycle time.

    Line drying would reduce your emissions considerably.

  3. EcoVer

    they do bio and non bio powders

    fabric softner

    washing up liquid, loo cleaner, surface cleaner...

    i use the powder and softner, everyone says my clothes smell great. sort of sherbety
