The need for people to move, from a less environmental-friendly routine to a more environmental-friendly one, which considers the health and safety of the people and environment, has become a subject of discussion all over the media space. The concern is that most of the traditional cleaning methods and solutions have been discovered to pose severe threats to humans and the environment. Eco-friendly cleaning methods and solutions are organic and have no health implications. I remember on one occasion, where I used a particular chemical cleaner that was recommended by a friend after I told her about my messy kitchen. The day after I cleaned my oven with the suggested solution, when I turned on my oven to heat my casseroles, the after-taste of my food was that of the chemical cleaner. Since that day, I am using only green cleaning approach for my oven or no cleaning at all. 

Many conventional cleaning solutions are not particularly environmentally-friendly, and some contain very toxic chemicals. A popular example of a conventional oven cleaning chemical is the Diethylene glycol monobutyl ether. This chemical poses danger for aquatic animals. I am sure you wouldn’t want to be responsible for the death of over ten thousand fishes. 

Let us consider some eco-friendly methods of cleaning your oven at home;

 Baking soda: Combine baking soda and water until you get a paste-like solution. Don’t worry, baking soda can be found in almost every grocery store. Use the paste to coat the oven’s surfaces and let it sit for some time. Using damp, clean cloth or brush wipe the surfaces.

• Vinegar: To get rid of burn spills and spots in your oven, you will only need vinegar. Spray the spot with vinegar, and let it sit for a few hours. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Your oven will be as clean as new. That is awesome.
• Vinegar, mixed with baking soda is the perfect combo: This is a magical combination. Spray the inside of the oven with vinegar, and then sprinkle with baking soda. Leave for some time to allow the two ingredients to do their magic, and then wipe with a damp cotton cloth.
• Salt: Leave your oven to cool down after using it for some time. Mix a small amount of water with cooking salt and spread throughout the oven, and leave for some time. Wipe with a clean damp cloth.
• Baking soda and Ammonia: To carry out this procedure, you need to warm your oven at about 200C, and then turn it off. Put ammonia in an oven-safe dish and place on the middle rack. In a second oven-safe dish, pour boiling water and place on the bottom rack. Close your oven and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Then remove the two dishes, Sprinkle baking soda in the oven and then wipe with a clean damp cloth.
• Baking soda, vinegar and dish soap: mix baking soda, white vinegar and a small amount of dish soap. Apply the solution inside the oven. Leave for some time, and then wipe with warm water and clean cloth.
• CONCLUSION

Cleaning your oven using eco-friendly methods is very easy, contrary to what you must have heard from friends. The methods outlined above are safe and don't pose any serious health threats. Consider using them to clean your oven.
