The "Green" building movement and green products in general do NOT address the needs and concerns of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity.
Green building and green consumer products are a good change from the toxic way we had been doing things,and it may save a lot of people from the living hell of MCS. However, those who suffer from MCS will find themselves disappointed and likely hurt by confusing "green" with MCS-friendly. Don't do it.
There are many good sources of MCS-friendly products if you take the time to look for them. One source of such sellers is the monthly newsletter Our Toxic Times published (since 1990) by the Chemical Injury Information Network.

I've been trying to make people around me understand this very concept. It's hard man, very hard. They just don't seem to get it. Probably because they haven't got MCS ;)
