"Dear Linda,
Tell companies to come clean on fragrance!

That lemon-fresh smell or pine forest scent in your favorite cleaner may be linked to serious health impacts like allergic reactions, respiratory disorders, reduced fertility, and birth defects. What's That Smell?, a new report by Women's Voices for the Earth, is the first report to examine the potential health impacts of common fragrance chemicals in cleaning products.



Unfortunately, you can't avoid harmful chemicals by looking on the product label. Fragrance chemicals are kept secret from consumers, meaning that we can't avoid certain chemicals, like the phthalates and synthetic musks mentioned in the report, even if we wanted to. The only current solution is to avoid fragranced cleaning products all together, which is simply an unfair choice. You should be able to clean your home without worrying whether it might be putting your health at risk.



So what CAN you do?



Take a minute right now to tell cleaning product companies to come clean! Click here to demand that Proctor & Gamble, Reckitt Benckiser (makers of Easy Off & Lysol), SC Johnson (makers of Windex), Clorox, and Sunshine Makers (makers of Simple Green) remove harmful ingredients and list all fragrance ingredients directly on the product label, where it helps you the most!



Then, learn more! Check out What's That Smell? and learn what you can do to avoid harmful fragrance ingredients in your own home!



To safe cleaning,
