Keeping water safe and clean
1.Don’t use antibacterial soaps or cleaning products.
Most of these contain trichlosan, a registered pesticide that has been found to harm aquatic
life. The American Medical Association warns that our use of antibacterial agents may lead to
“superbugs” that will be antibiotic resistant. Regular soap and water kills germs just as
effectively.
2.Never flush unwanted or out-of-date medicines down the toilet or the drain.
Find out if your county or city has a site or program to collect unwanted pharmaceuticals.
If not, remove all labels and wrap the products up before disposing in the
garbage. If possible, pour water or vinegar in the bottle to destroy pills and make them
inaccessible to children.
3.Don’t put anything except water down storm drains.
These drains carry storm water to our local waterways, including San Francisco Bay, the
Delta, and the Pacific Ocean. Used motor oil, detergents, lawn fertilizers, pesticides, and
other contaminants get carried by stormwater to local waterways and cause unnecessary
harm.
4.Fix leaks that drip from your car and put down a liner in your driveway to collect oil
and other materials.
These leaks and drips contribute to stormwater pollution
5.Avoid using pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
They pose a serious threat to your health and safety and they pollute both ground and
surface water.
Keeping air clean and safe
1.Reduce heating needs by making your house more energy efficient
2.Say no to wood fire burning
3.Reduce, reuse, and recycle!
4.No smoking!
Smoke kills. As do gases and fumes. Literally! Therefore, avoiding smoke and gas accumulation indoors is one of the most effective ways to ensure breathing clean air indoors.
5.Avoid toxic cleaning and cosmetic products
Unfortunately, most cleaning products are chemicals-based and contain harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that may seriously challenge the levels of indoor air purity. Cleaners, paints, shellacs, floor polishes and waxes may contain and release in the air highly toxic chemicals such as chlorine, ammonia, formaldehyde or acetaldehyde.
