Go Toxic-Free

Any chemical that you use inside or outside your house eventually reaches the environment – whether polluting our indoor air, going down the drain to our lakes, going to the landfill, or simply sinking into the ground on your property – it all impacts the natural world. Most pollution in our waterways is not from single large sources, but accumulates from many smaller source (and is called 'non-point-source' pollution). What’s in Runoff? outlines what residential activities cause pollution and how to stop them.
To be RiverSafe and to protect your own health and your property, limit the number of chemicals that you use in and around your house, choose environmentally friendly alternatives, and be cautious with the toxins you do use.

1. Clean up toxic wastes In Your Garden by going fertilizer and pesticide-free and picking up pet wastes.
2. Stop using chemicals In and Around Your House, and be careful when draining pools and using de-icers and salts. 
3. Stop the leak of fluids from Your Car, and don't wash it on the street, take it to a carwash instead.
