Whoring and Satire - all in one! 8-D
Sep. 14th, 2004 04:21 pmNormally, I'm not one to be in the Shameless Promotion of Clients game ... but in this instance, I'm more than willing to give in, without any kickbacks involved. :)
You know that you've had the best of intentions when it comes to being more environmentally aware - even if all you do is make sure that you put a soda can in the recycle bin once a month. Hey, it's better than your college roommate, who used enough hairspray to cause a hole in the Ozone over Fargo, North Dakota, right?
Or you're more aware of animal testing on products - and demand that if it's going to be done, that they use Death Row inmates, not cute fuzzy bunnies. Besides, what do hardened criminals have to live for? At least cute fuzzy bunnies are, well, cute ... fuzzy ... bunnies!!
Okay - so you're more serious than that. You actually have 6 bins at your place - one for the paper recycling, one for aluminum recycling, one for plastics recycling, one for glass recycling, one for composting, and one for the miscellaneous items (all one or two that somehow manage to enter your humble abode ... you're not sure how, but there they are).
When it comes to animal testing, you've stopped using products made by anyone that tests on animals, or has a 6-degrees-of-separation relationship to any company that does such testing, years before it was cool. You don't eat or wear animal products in any way, shape or form. You might even attend candlelight vigils at Universities that perform animal testing, or hand out leaflets about animal abuse at the circus when it comes to your Fair City.
Well, no matter where you are on that spectrum - whether you're a Fairweather Treehugger, because Pamela Anderson's doing it or a Greenpeace/PETA Lifer because you're thinking of Mother Earth - Method Home Products is a line of environmentally-friendly, not-tested-on-animals home care products.
Not only do they smell good, clean well, and come in very pretty packages - they don't test on animals, and don't use any solvents or chemicals that are environmentally or family-unfriendly.
In other words, you can use Method's goodness to clean up your house, and not have to worry over the puppy licking the floor you'd just cleaned up - or having to rinse off the countertop after cleaning it, because the kitchen cleaner will not contaminate your food.
Besides, if you're not convinced by the pretty packages or the swell website, how could you not get into a product line that has scents like "lemon ginger", "pomegranate", "mandarin orange", "sweetwater", "cucumber" and abhors that "artificial pine scent"?
Also, check out the entire site to get the story behind the company, including their "People Against Dirtytm" philosophy, their initial ad campaigns, and where to buy Method Home products.
