Deirdre Imus has expressed concern over the chemicals used in commercial cleaning products and her book Green This!Greening Your Cleaning, published in April 2007, advocates the use of alternative cleaning products. Green This!Greening Your Cleaning contends that chemicals such as ammonia are harmful and she calls for "environmentally responsible" ways to clean around the house.[3] She appeared on the NBCToday Show on April 6, 2007, to demonstrate the cleaning methods discussed in her book. A scheduled book tour was postponed, however, in the wake of the controversy surrounding the cancellation of the Imus in the Morning show.[4][5]
