A Focus on the Environment and our Children
We all went the best for our children -the best schools, the best doctors, the best foods...
As our Planet becomes more toxic, we must consider the environment where our children live and the quality of the air they breathe and the water they drink.
All things are interdependent....what we do has consequences. If we make positive choices, we are able to affect the future. Also, by teaching our children about caring for the environment...we are influencing their actions as they grow into decision-making, independent adults.
There are more than a billion households on earth. Homes surpass industry in how they contribute to water pollution. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has found that the toxic chemicals in household cleaners are 3x more likely to cause cancer than outdoor air. In the last 50 years, over 80 000 new chemicals have been produced and the majority of them have not been tested for their long-term impact. A consumer product safety commission study in the U.S. found that 150 chemicals found in the average home are linked to allergies, birth defects, cancers, psychological abnormalities, etc.
Toxins that enter our environment are ravaging our lives -and even more so the lives of our children.
Because children are smaller and still developing, they are far more vulnerable to toxic exposure than adults.
Knowing that Norwex offers a healthier alternative for cleaning and knowing that children mimic every action... has led to the development of the new Norwex kids line!
Kids love to help out and now you can provide them with their own cleaning tools that are safe and non-toxic. With Norwex, it is actually safe and educational to let your child touch the cleaning supplies!
When you share your passion for chemical-free cleaning with your children, you are teaching them about making educated decisions as a future consumer, how to protect the environment and how to make decisions that affect health and well-being.
Our mission to save the planet can start with children by offering kid-focused products. This early focus will teach them to grow up cleaning without chemicals. Cleaning with microfiber and water is how you clean.
Happy Cleaning!
