Guilt-free laundry

Weve managed to banish plastic from almost everywhere in our life,
except the laundry room.

With the launch of Seventh Generations new 4X
Natural Laundry Detergent ($17.99) theres one less earth-enemy
clogging up our shelves. Packaged in 100 per cent newspaper and
cardboard casing, the shell can be composted and the inner plastic bag
thrown into the recycling bin. Great packaging aside, we like that its
mild-scented and uber-concentrated so we use less per load.

Have we single-handedly saved the polar bear population with a washload
of whites? Probably not, but we feel awfully smug nonetheless. Marianne
