What does it claim to provide?

The official Tide website says that PurClean is the first “bio-based detergent with the cleaning power of Tide.” Among its ingredients 65% come from bio-based sources (though I recommend scrolling down to the ingredients list on this page to see what that means).  It is a product produced in a facility that doesn’t send any waste to landfills and it is 100% wind powered.
