Chemicals - Wash your windows with vinegar

Bacteria, Kamchatka, Russia

Most of the world's pollution comes from the developed countries, which produce more than 95% of dangerous pollution. However, in these countries the regulations governing the disposal of dangerous industrial waste have become so strict and involve so much expense that companies have turned to developing countries to take their waste. And industry is not the only area in which chemical products proliferate.

Most window cleaning fluids contain synthetic compounds that are harmful to rivers. Replace them with a bucket of water, to which you have added a few spoonfuls of vinegar. Apply this with a cloth or newspaper, rather than with a paper towel.
