“Eliminate use of pesticides and toxic cleaning products”
Earth Day Network Basil will deter flies and mosquitoes. Feverfew attracts aphids away from roses, while garlic, coriander and nasturtiums deter them as well. Tomato worms don't like borage or pot marigolds. By choosing the right companion herbs in your garden of flowers or vegetables, you can avoid the bad effects of spraying pesticides.
Simple, effective non-toxic cleaning solutions can be made using vinegar and vegetable soaps.

Because of the current economy, many so called "green" or "non-toxic" products are not within people's budget.
There is a way to purchase safe, non-toxic, biodegradable products at less than their "toxic" counterparts.
Don't forget about toxins in personal care products, skin care/cosmetics, dental and even baby products.
I have a lot of info (too much to post here). There is a great "Go Green Webinar" online. If anyone would like the info, you can go to: www.gogreenwebcast.com/youcare

I have replaced all of my household cleaners with Imus "Greening the Cleaning". I love it, it works just as well as any other brand and isn't as harsh.
Amway products for cleaning
Amway products for cleaning (household, car etc) are non-toxic. All of their products are made from their own organic farming operations. Because pesticide is one of the 140 contaminates in drinking water it is best to consider using the eSpring water purification system which uses a carbon filter and ultraviolet light to clear water of contaminants as well as bacteria and viruses.

I don't have a garden or space to grow my own fruit or vegetables but i'm vegetarian. I don't want to taste chemicals and pestisides on my food, i want my food to taste the way mother earth intended it. I don't want animals harmed just so we can have bigger, brighter, perfect food. I don't eat meat for alot of reason and one of them is due to the unnessasery killing of animals, but if i am eating fruit and vegetables that have harmful chemicals on that are killing animals then i might aswel go out and buy a burger!!! That is why i believe in this pledge.
Now lets save this planet!!!!
