Dirty Money....
I was just reading a very interesting article from the Green Clean Institute about Dirty Money....no, not stolen or the other things! Dirty Money...How contaminated is it?.... and this goes along with my last Facebook post...
It really made me think that although our world is mainly local, things around us in our towns and cities, everything we handle is GLOBAL! Our meats, our fruits, our vegetables, our furniture, our money.....everything! (We always say buy local, buy fresh!) . The same is true with our money. Money travels with us, we buy things, we get change, it exchanges many hands a day.
So, what is on our money? The amount of bacteria, viruses, etc. are endless. Everything from a particular region including local viruses, flora and fauna which can include pollen and mold to E. Coli and Salmonella. Some of the findings were quite scary and when you think of it, we exchange money everyday.....without blinking an eye. To top it off......as we all know.....money travels FAST!!!!
The bottom line is....wash your hands!!! I can't stress this enough....Green Cleaning 101 tells us that washing your hands is the most effective thing you can do to protect yourself from illnesses. Sooo......keep this in mind as you're handling your "Dirty Money" as well.......
