August 31st, 2009I had no idea that our choice of toilet paper could mean so much - But the reality is that the soft, triple-ply premium wipe is actually wiping out virgin forests too. "...the NRDC estimates that if every household in the U.S. replaced just one 500-sheet roll of virgin-fiber TP a year with a roll made from 100% recycled paper, nearly 425,000 trees would be saved annually." Read this Time article to learn which brands help protect forests, and which literally flush them down the toilet.
