My name is Jessie Franklin, the founder of Eco-Fundraiser.com - a zero waste school ​ ​ fundraiser - and author of Clean Green Home. Three years ago, I decided to eliminate ​ ​ unnecessary toxins from my home because I began to realize that many ingredients used in household and beauty products, even the so called “green” ones, are chemicals that can be harmful to our health. My research led me to see how the ingredients in every product we use, and it’s packaging - especially single-use and disposable plastic - also impacts the health of our environment. I always thought that plastics would forever have use if properly recycled, but as I learned more, I discovered that recycling them is not the eco-friendly solution that I had believed it to be.
