"  There are thousands of products on shelves that claim to be better for the planet but we know that when you&amp;#039;re out shopping, you&amp;#039;re confused and even mistrustful about these &amp;quot;green&amp;quot; promises. To help you to separate the real from the hype we created the Green Good Housekeeping Seal (GGHS). If you see a product bearing this Seal, you can be sure that, first of all it really works. That&amp;#039;s because before a product applies for the GGHS, it has to earn the Good Housekeeping Seal. Only then do we proceed to evaluate the environmental factors, verifying data related to the product&amp;#039;s measurable impact on the planet. Reduction of water use in manufacturing, energy efficiency in manufacturing and product use, ingredient and product safety, packaging reduction, and the brand&amp;#039;s corporate social responsibility are among the factors we consider. When you see our Green Good Housekeeping Seal on a product you can be sure that it meets all its green claims. I&amp;#039;m pleased to announce that we have 13 new Green Good Housekeeping Seal holders. In the Appliances and Electronics category, Bissell&amp;#039;s Little Green and the S5 and S6 Miele canister vacuums have met the requirements on the GGHS applications. TENA Overnight Pads, TENA Super Long Pads, Scotts Naturals Bath Tissues and Pampers Cruisers are our new GGHS holders in the Paper Goods arena.  As the first manufacturers to apply for the GGHS in their categories, Bissell, Miele, TENA, Scotts Naturals, and Pampers, worked with us and our consultants, Brown and Wilmanns Environmental, to help us fine tune the application and ensure that all environmental concerns associated with the Appliances and Electronics and Paper Goods categories are covered and adequately addressed in the applications. By working with manufacturers in this way, we ensure that the questions are asked in a way that can be answered and validated based on the way companies manufacture goods and record data.  When you&amp;#039;re in stores, be sure to look for the Green Good Housekeeping Seal to be confident that products that have been manufactured in ways that lower their impact on the environment in addition to performing as you expect. And like all products that bear the Good Housekeeping Seal, they have a limited two-year warranty from the date of purchase. Be sure to check out a description of each of our Green Good Housekeeping Seal holders and see how they did on the application.
