Hi Permies - I am new to this group but felt compelled to reply to a post about paint and what may be environmentally friendly....Because I'm in a similar situation of having to paint interiors here in Ohio, I've been researching various companies now for months.  There is a South Carolina company, Ecos paint, that says that use of their product will actually improve the breathe-ability of your home.  At $85 per gallon, I'm not willing to take that chance.  And, if you feel you have seen a lot of green washing lately, another company called BioShield, says they use all natural ingredients with no VOC's, no matter what color - are you ready for the price?  $250 - $350 per gallon.  Totally unaffordable.  I guess I'll stick to Sherwin Williams newer paints that have very low VOC's and the price is around $30 per gallon.  Hope this info helps a bit and beware of greenwashing!  - Chris
