Effects on the Enviroment
Sadly, most of the items I searched for "Acetone free" were nail polish removers.
Acetone doesnt have a harsh effect on the enviroment as it occurs naturally in nature. Things such as plants, trees, volcanic gases, forest fires, and even the by product of broken down of body fat.Even if some industrialized acetone was spread it already evaporates rapidly, even from water and soil.
