Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
The majority of the increase in sustainable cleaning products was in the steps we took to improve our green cleaning practices irrelevant to the pandemic. Due to the pandemic there may be a few areas that perhaps didn't require as much non green cleaning/product to be used than would typically be used (i.e. Wrestling didn't have as many practices, therefore the mat didn't need to be wiped down as much). These changes however were largely inconsequential to the overall number, therefore the data entered is representative of a normal year. The Green Cleaning Policy outlines efforts to increase the usage of green cleaning products, which accounts for the high percentage of expenditure and corresponding high points achieved for this credit.
