Clean with vinegar and baking soda

which handles the vast majority of cleaning jobs. That way, the shelf with cleaning products will be smaller, and the amount of chemistry in your home as well. A mixture of vinegar and water 1: 1 can be used as a universal cleaner.

Replace the paper towel with cloth napkins

which are good for both the environment and the eye! You can sew or cut napkins from eg old tablecloths or sheets. After use, they can be washed again and again.
