Most people remembers Valentines, Parents’ day and birthdays of loved ones, but do you know that 15th October is marked as Global Handwashing Day? It’s a day to reinforce the importance of washing your hands PROPERLY, in fact this simple act can not only save your life, but those lives around you as well.
Washing hand is not merely rinsing with water, but is washing with soap, scrub with at least 20 seconds, rinse with running water and then wipe it dry with clean cloth, tissue or paper towel. However, while washing hands helps with maintaining hygiene and saves lives, but washing with chemical-laden soap and syndet will do more harms to the environment. So instead you ended with a thumbs-up on one end but a thumbs-down on the other end.
SO how do you maintain hygiene without affecting our beloved Mother Earth? Well the answer is simple! Just wash with good-old handmade soap instead, as its fully bio-degradable and environmental-friendly. Now you’re getting two thumbs-up!
