One of the biggest problems on our planet is the great pacific garbage patch, which is a floating collection of plastic that is larger than the continental united states. Can you believe that? Ditch those plastic bags and use reusable sacks. This is a huge issue.

Glad to see some others are though! I had considered getting rid of toilet paper, at least for a week or two, but haven’t convinced myself to give it a try yet. Glad to see some others are though!

Reusable menstrual products are MUCH nicer than disposables. I bought the Diva Cup for my trip to India (so I'd have less to pack and deal with) I've been using every since. On occasion I've had to suffer a regular pad or tampon and I've been miserable. I sewed my own cloth pads using a template I found online. They are infinitely more comfortable. My problem is adjusting to life without paper towels. When you have to go to the laundry mat to clean your linens the incentive to be "green" by doing away with paper towels is really low. Sometimes, it's not about doing what is convenient though. Sometimes it's just about doing what is right. Kudoos for you!!! Reusable menstrual products are MUCH nicer than disposables.
