Comments: Seventh Generation continues to take a stand on creating a toxic-free world. On April 30, the firm’s “Toxin Freedom Fighters”—a special group of kids armed with 120,000 signatures supporting chemical regulation reform—went to Washington DC. The children, along with parent advocates and supporters took the petitions to the offices of Senators David Vitter, Tom Udall, Barbara Boxer, Kirsten Gillibrand, Bernie Sanders, Edward Markey, Mike Crapo, Patrick Leahy and Corey Booker.
Seventh Gen CEO John Replogle was part of the brigade too.
“The chemical industry works under a regulatory Wild West, but it doesn’t have to be that way,” he said during a press conference there. “We’re here to let Congress know that it is good business to be green.”
Part of that good business is using less packaging, too.
Seventh Generation is rolling out a series of concentrated products that are part of Target’s special “Made To Matter” collection. The 3oz bottles are poured into a 32oz spray bottle along with tap water. The range includes all-purpose cleaner, tube and tile cleaner and glass and surface cleaner.
