Would you say ammonia is a "green" cleaner? What about rubbing alcohol? While collecting recipes for green cleaners, I see a lot of them include clear ammonia and/or rubbing alcohol. What do you think?

Ammonia is made from many sources naturally. So as far as naturally occuring compounds it isn't horribly toxic that way- but one must remember Chlorine is also naturally occuring. It really depends on the strength of exposure (concentration) and production methods.
Here is a good website.
