Is there a hand soap that is better for the environment?

looking for a ';greener'; brand that is still antibacterial.Is there a hand soap that is better for the environment?
Global warming is all a bunch of poo. Just use soap for crying out loud and stop believing everything the media saysIs there a hand soap that is better for the environment?

Antibacterial soaps in general can be significantly harmful to the environment--you're washing those bug-killing chemicals down the drain, killing good bacteria along the way, and possibly helping create ';super-bugs'; that are resistant to antibacterial agents.





Normal hand washing with something like castile soap (Kirk's bar soap, Dr. Bonner's liquid, etc) is sufficient for most things--if you've been scooping litterboxes, or dealing with manure or things like that, an antibacterial soap may be in order, but typically I rinse my hands in a water/vinegar mixture for vinegar's antibacterial properties after washing with castile soap--all natural, and kills the buggies! Good luck.

Don't know if it's antibacterial, but liquid castile soap is very good.
Method products are among those that are better for the environment. Also bar soap is better since it uses little to no packaging. You should look for soap with paper packaging instead of packaging so you can recyle it. You could also make your own if you want instructions you can check out my blog

I would imagine that glycerine soap would be good for the environment.
