Plants, even weeds, are living things too. (Dandelion is a weed to most, and it is ALSO a great salad green.) There is NO SUCH THING as a green herbicide.

You can add salt too. but make sure there is nothing close that you want to keep alive. Boiling water will work to spot kill weeds.

It's basically non-toxic to humans/mammals when used in it's proper dilution ratio. Actually Round-Up is quite "green" it’s just basically water with sodium in it.

Round up is green which means that it is an organic material that readily breaks down. That does not mean it is safe to use around pets or humans. It is highly toxic. Clorox has a nifty little product out now that is "green". Yes, it is 95% green ( as advertized) but it is that 5% that will kill you. Beware of slick advertising. Green herbicide sounds like an oxymoron. After reading some of the answers, I felt I had to add my 2 cents.
