Dirty Disinfectant, Hot Iron Blobs, Infinite Versions of You
Curiosity Weekly
Is There a Better Choice?
The federal government requires companies to disclose ingredients on the product labels, except trade secrets like fragrances and flavors. Any product with the safer choice stamp of approval has gone through rigorous reviews by the e p a. For anti microbil products in particular, like hand sanitizer, they have an equivalent label called d f e which stands for design for the environment.
Today, you’ll learn about how some cleaning products in your kitchen may be terrible for the environment even though they’re labeled “green,” hot blobs of iron playing games with Earth’s magnetic field and how some far-out theories in physics predict there are infinite versions of you.
Your green cleaning products may not actually be so clean OR green.
