It also seems to me to be a little unbalanced when the producers of personal and household cleaners seem more concerned about harm to the environment than harm to the human body.

 Please note: Without God’s gift of dirt our plants would not grow and without good bacteria, what we eat would turn to garbage and never be digested. So……………….
