All true and here is to no trees used for toilet paper. The bamboo toilet paper is also highly rated as much better for septic systems. One of the manufacturers of both bamboo and recycled paper toilet paper, Who Gives A Crap, also donates 50% of their profits to organizations dedicated to ensuring all people have access to clean water and proper sanitation. I particularly like the fact that the rolls of toilet paper are wrapped in paper that can be recycled, so no plastic involved at all, Nancy McDonald
