Sustainability Strategy Ideas: Green Cleaning Concepts

Green cleaning is an approach to cleaning that prioritizes the use of nontoxic and environmentally friendly cleaning products and practices. Unlike conventional cleaning methods that often involve harsh chemicals, green cleaning aims to minimize harmful impacts on both human health and the environment. By reducing the use of hazardous chemicals, wasteful practices, and excessive energy consumption, green cleaning can significantly contribute to creating a more sustainable workplace.
