Product Description

When Adam Lowry and Eric Ryan founded Method, the environmentally friendly brand of cleaning products, they used packaging stylish enough to showcase on the countertop and pleasant aromas such as green tea and cucumber to transform household products into must-have lifestyle accessories. And when they coined the phrase "People Against Dirty," they weren't just talking about the stuff you track in on your shoes—they also meant the toxic chemicals that make up many household detergents. Packed with helpful tips and surprising facts, their first book, Squeaky Green, is a totally informative and completely entertaining room-by-room guide to giving dirty the boot. Squeaky Green is rehab for chemically dependant homes.

Customer Reviews

Learned a lot
This book looks lightweight but it gave me a lot of info in stylish, tabbed sections with good photography and witty asides. Even if you are already an eco-consumer, chances are each section will have one or two new facts. For instance in the Bedroom section, I learned about PBDE-free mattresses and the hidden danger in wrinkle free sheets. In Laundry rooms I learned specifics about dry cleaning solvent and in Bathrooms I gleaned insights about some organic product loopholes and another name for pesticide in toothpaste. There are great tidbits in every chapter and while the authors take the subject seriously, the book has a fun presentation that leaves a reader feeling like it is easy to make some important changes.

An interesting read..
This is a great book for someone who is trying to live green, or just healthier. It's amazing how many products we use everyday are bad for us and the environment. I love the tips Danny Seo adds. I <3 Method and I <3 this book.

Excellent
I LOVED this book, couldn't put it down. Very easy to read and understand and funny too. Lots of "green" tips for you, the family and the home. A definite read for anyone going the green way of life and doing the right thing for your health and for the earth:)
