It's not toxic, but it's not good for your skin. Strips all the oils and waxes out.

The problem is, no matter how lovely, biodegradeable, and guilt-assuaging your degreaser is, it's still degreasing. Meaning it encapsulates the nasty grease on your chain and removes it. While the degreaser may degrade, your grease is still nasty, wherever it winds up.
