Nearly every cleaning product in your home may release hundreds of toxic chemicals (6)
Which one gives to the best high? For research purposes 
The bell rang days and months and years ago. Everything is toxic. Carpe Diem....
I just want to add a few observations:
Some insurance companies non-profit, hint, hint) spend up to two thousand dollars to deny a thirty-dollar claim.
Recycling is a great idea. It surely is. However, it costs about three dollars in water and electricity to clean a container worth one eighth of one cent. How many people do you know, especially the hipster crowd, who really take the time to look for the tiny icon on the bottom of boxes and plastic containers to determine if they are even recyclable or not? Trust me, not a whole lot of people do this. The world is way goofy. I'm all for trying for improvement, but I really think the bird has flown the cage. So, do the best you can, I suppose.

Nearly every cleaning product in your home may release hundreds of potentially toxic chemicals when used, a study suggests.
Researchers at the Environmental Working Group tested 30 common household products such as glass cleaners, stain removers and air fresheners.
They said that all but one released measurable levels of volatile compounds, or VOCs — tiny toxins linked to cancers, asthma and fertility problems when inhaled.
Ten products released levels of the chemicals that were so high they breached European safety standards, and the VOCs lingered in the air for up to four hours.
Even some 'green' products — that claimed to be safer and more environmentally friendly — released hazardous levels of VOCs, they said.
The researchers added that the study was a 'wake-up call' for consumers, saying that people needed to be 'more aware' of the risks from cleaning products.
