GREEN PRODUCTS
( This page is not quite finished, as you can notice. )
This page presents retail establishments that have been found to carry some green household products.
Also, on this page, are links to the safety documentation supplied by the makers of the various
products. Usually such documentation has been supplied to the national government where the product is made
( US, Canada, and UK most often ).
The stores, in Pacific Grove, that carry green products, when safety documentation is available,
are listed. Those in the left column are locally owned, middle franchised , and
the right column are national chains.
The numbers and letters following each store name refer to the brands carried ( see list below ).
Numbers generally relate to brands used inside a home. Letters generally relate to green and
biodegradable brands for use elsewhere.

This is a list of brands ( companies ) that have supplied information on how to find the safety
information they have supplied. In the US and Canada there is a document callrd "Material
Safety Data Sheets" ( MSDS ). When that is online a link is provided, otherwise a link is
provided to the information that is available online.
( A good explaination of the MSDS is found
in Wikipedia .)
( Each product name below is a link to its home page.)
