    Idea posted January 5, 2011 by AD in New Ideas public
    A garbage system that didn't force you to pick up the garbage bag out of the container but instead had a container that opened and allowed the user to tie the garbage bag and go vs. trying to force an overly stuffed garbage bag Up out of a garbage container that is not made for an overstuffed bag (makes for a hassle every time)

    I have kids and they always over stuff the garbage bag and it makes it hard to try and get the bag out of the garbage container - so it would be nice to have a better way.  Like haveing a container that opens allowing me to tie the bag and go with no hassle of trying to fit the overstuffed bag out of the non-flexible container...

    Eco-Friendly Green Works Sponge or Scrubbers!

    Hi Greenworks!

    I would love to see a sponge or an item that can be used with the Greenworks line that is eco-friendly as well.  It would be amazing if you could have a sponge that is either all natural, or a sponge made from recycled materials! It would be a great addition to your product line!

    Re-Usable Wipes - wash the rags and have a container that you can pour / re-use the solution vs. throwing them away when you are done

    If instead of having wipes that you throw away when you are done, you could have the solution, a container, and washable wipes and can be re-used.  I would definetly buy a product like this as I have tried this option at home and it works well.  even if you had another container that held the dirty wipes until they were ready to be washed and then just had to dump them into the wash and be done...

    Very easy system - the user wouldn't have to think of anything and it would allow users that felt that they would lose track of the wipes (much like little kid socks) to have a solution to keep track of all the dirty ones and wash them all together so none would get lost....

    Biodegradeable Green Works wipes

    I love cleaning with wipes but I would like to use a "Green" product and have the wipe be biodegradeable.  I would love it if Clorox made these!!!

    A Family Story5.0
    Announcement posted December 10, 2010 by Maria MedinaInnovation Ambassadors in Announcements Board public

    Recently this mom posted a great blog about Green Works!

    A Family Story:

    I was recently sent a sample of the new Green Works from Clorox through Mom Central.  And to be completely honest, I had forgotten I had signed up to receive the samples and saw them on sale at Walmart and had already purchased some.


    We have already changed out our lightbulbs to be "greener" and Ray seems especially obsessed with being green.

    Enter in the cleaners. I will also admit this - I don't clean often. I hate it. Despise it. But every.single.day our kitchen becomes a disaster. We have a huge granite island that somehow through dinner and kids becomes messy and our black wood (or laminate? I don't know what it is, but it is black) kitchen table becomes even more messier.

    Normally I use just a wet paper towel and a lot of elbow grease. Okay, I mean Ray uses a wet paper towel and a lot of elbow grease (did I mention he does the grocery shopping too?). But when I do clean, it's a pain.

    But not with this stuff. Not only did it work great, I think it smells non-chemically (I am making up words here). It smells really like lemons and the Glass and Surface cleaner   is safe to use on sealed granite. We were always afraid to use other chemical products on our granite for fear of eating away at the sealant. The Natural All Purpose Cleaner is safe for granite as well (and stainless steel and chrome).

    Finally a company that listened to its customers and developed a product that not only works, but works well.

    And as you know we love to hear from you!

    Going GREEN for the holidays5.0
    Announcement posted December 2, 2010 by Maria MedinaInnovation Ambassadors in Announcements Board public

    If you want to enjoy a clean and sustainable future and leave your children and grandchildren with the same standard of living that you are enjoying, it is important that we take better care of the home we all share, our Planet Earth. The holidays offer many opportunities to save money, cut energy use and help balance our home’s greenhouse gas budget-the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere to produce goods or electrical power.

    Share how your family is going GREEN for the holidays at my Green Works idea.

    It's easy to be Green
    Announcement posted November 11, 2010 by Maria MedinaInnovation Ambassadors in Announcements Board public

    If we recycled all of the newspapers printed in the U.S. on a typical Sunday, we would save 550,000 trees - or about 26 million trees per year (California Department of Conservation).
