FTC getting tougher on ‘Green’ terms By: Karin Beuerlein HouseLogic.com Does "natural" mean organic? Should you buy anything labeled "non-toxic"? Here are the truth and eco-facts about many of the green terms you find on product labels.
So when is all this happening? An FTC official we spoke to says the revisions may be final this summer. Until then - and even after then, since the guides don't have the force of regulation - put on your skeptic's hat when you shop and be prepared to research labels before you buy.

What's really green? Soon you'll have a little more confidence about green product marketing claims, such as "biodegradable" and "recyclable": The Federal Trade Commission, which sets standards for the use of environmental claims in its Green Guides, is getting tougher on green terms. Proposed revisions to the Green Guides will make it harder for companies to make unsubstantiated green claims about their products.
1. "Organic": a green term that really means something Organic is the one term in our list that's federally regulated - by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to be specific. Product makers making this claim must prove their stuff is "produced without antibiotics, hormones, pesticides, irradiation, or bioengineering." Period. FTC is cracking down on these terms 2. "Recyclable." After the new
guidelines are adopted, a manufacturer can use this term without a caveat only if a substantial majority of communities nationwide have facilities that can actually recycle its product. Before you buy, do your homework to see what you're able to recycle locally. Also, take a closer look when a product claims to be "recycled" (a term that's not covered in the Green Guides).
down than the rest of your compost pile.
What you really want to look for is "postconsumer recycled" content. These products have been diverted from the landfill, so you're truly helping reduce the waste stream when you buy them.
6. "Natural" is unregulated by the government. It's not interchangeable with organic or healthy, although manufacturers want you to think if it's natural, it has to be good for you, right? Not so much. Take ammonia. It's a naturally occurring compound, but it's also a toxic pollutant. Without context, the word natural doesn't mean much.
3. "Biodegradable." When you see this term, you think, "Great, I don't need to worry about throwing this away; it'll break down naturally." But many products labeled biodegradable need ideal composting conditions to break down - and some won't degrade even then. The FTC's new guidelines require that products or packaging labeled "degradable" break down within a year in normal disposal conditions. Heads-up: That means the term likely won't apply to anything you'd throw in the trash, because items simply don't degrade in landfills. It's far better to reduce waste in the first place than to expect it to disappear. 4. "Compostable." In the future, products with this claim shouldn't take any longer to break
5. "Non-toxic." The FTC's new guidelines say that non-toxic claims should mean the product isn't harmful to humans and safe for the environment. But research the product online if the label is vague. And definitely don't assume kids or pets can ingest it safely. The fuzziest green term of all
A label to help you decide When you're just not sure about a product's claims, look for certification by a reputable third party - like Scientific Certification Systems. Its green-and-blue SCS label provides some reassurance that a product lives up to its claims. SCS sets tough standards for the terms biodegradable and recycled content, according to BuildingGreen, an independent company that educates building professionals on green certifications. And the label has been around a long time. Some SCS guidelines: •SCS only certifies liquid products as biodegradable cleaners, detergents, and soaps that break down completely in natural conditions in 28 days. •Recycled products include a wide array of building products - windows, doors, insulation, carpets, tiles, and more so seek them out.

Protecting your home’s indoor air quality Marketing Manager at Panasonic Eco Solutions North America.
(StatePoint) With so many people now optimizing their living spaces for energy efficiency, the risk for indoor air pollution in homes can actually increase, say experts, as pollutants can get trapped indoors as a result.
Although most consumers are aware of the need for ventilation in areas prone to high-humidity like bathrooms, an entire air-tight home can benefit from eliminating mold, mildew, moisture, volatile organic compounds and other invisible vapors.
Clean air inside your home is vital. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), exposure to air pollutants can cause health problems, including respiratory disease, heart disease and cancer. Here are steps you can take to protect your family from these risks: Prevent Many sources of air pollution are preventable. Start by ensuring no one smokes inside, as secondhand smoke contains nicotine, toxic chemicals and carcinogenic agents. Take care of water leaks immediately to prevent mold and mildew from forming around your home. Also, take steps to reduce indoor humidity. The EPA and the Department of Energy are offering tips on how to do so at www.EnergyStar.gov. If your home was built between 1930 and 1950, it was likely insulated with asbestos. Make sure these materials are in good condition, as damaged asbestos could release harmful fibers into your home. Hire a professional to seal, cover or remove damaged material.
Emissions from gas stoves can worsen asthma. If anyone in your household suffers from asthma, consider replacing your gas stove with an electric one. Choose safe household cleaners that don’t contain harsh chemicals. Organic and nontoxic products can do the same job as traditional products, without irritating your eyes, nose and throat. Ventilate No matter how many steps you take to prevent indoor air pollution, your home is subject to inevitable sources of pollutants. Proper mechanical ventilation is your best defense. “Continuous ventilation at a low speed not only takes minimal wattage to run, but it also significantly improves the indoor air quality of your entire home by exhausting hidden pollution, such as allergens, mildew, mold and more,” says Anita So,
First, check to see if your ventilation fans are working properly. If the bathroom mirror steams up after a hot shower or bath, it is time to replace or install a ventilation fan. For example, Panasonic’s ENERGY STAR rated WhisperGreen fan offers ventilation with a low speed setting for continuous whole-home ventilation and a high speed setting for increased moisture levels produced by showers or baths. WhisperGreen fans are extremely quiet, energy efficient and feature exclusive technology, ensuring powerful performance. Not only will a combination of intermittent and continuous ventilation keep your family safer from allergens and toxic gases, but it can also save you money by preventing structural damage, ruined fixtures, peeling wallpaper and blistering paint. Sometimes hidden dangers are the most menacing. But you can breathe more easily by preventing and removing pollutants in your home.
