Cofounders of Cruelty-Free method Cleaning Products Named PETA's 2006 'Person of the Year'

Cleaning products by method are popping up on supermarket shelves across the country and in "big-box" stores like Target and Lowes. They're great-smelling, all-natural, and tough on dirt. Best of all, they're cruelty-free, and they are giving products made by behind-the-times companies that still drip chemicals into bunnies' eyes a run for their money.

PETA is pleased to name method cofounders Eric Ryan and Adam Lowry as its "Persons of the Year" for creating a trailblazing line of surface cleaners, soaps, home fragrances, and more that make it easy for caring consumers to choose products that haven't been tested by blinding rabbits and poisoning mice. The company's Web site states, "[W]e never test our products on animals, and neither do the suppliers of our raw materials. That would be dirty, and we're against that."

From dish soap and laundry detergent to window cleaner and dryer sheets, all of method's products are made from natural, biodegradable ingredients; are free of animal-derived ingredients;and are available in refreshing fragrances such as pink grapefruit, cucumber, lavender, and mint. For everything you need to get a sparkling clean home without harming so much as a hair on a mouse's head, check out method.

PETA salutes Eric and Adam for making the world a cleaner, more compassionate place.
