You need a bidet’ or ‘recycled tissue’ – Wash Post’s ‘Climate Coach’ takes a swipe at toilet paper usage: ‘We may come to see wiping our bums with extra-soft toilet paper…as we do smoking cigarettes’


CLIMATE COACH Michael J. Coren: The typical person in the United States uses about 24 rolls of toilet paper per year. ... Every year, Americans flush the equivalent of millions of trees down the toilet. ... Nearly a quarter of the world’s last intact forest landscapes are in this region, says the Natural Resources Defense Council, storing about the same amount of carbon as three decades’ worth of fossil fuel emissions. ... One day, we may come to see wiping our bums with extra-soft toilet paper from virgin forests as we do smoking cigarettes: mainly a good idea for the people who sell the products.

Excerpt: The vast majority of Americans still exclusively use toilet paper, though. For many, the bidet remains a fusty porcelain basin vaguely associated with the French. But the technology has evolved. Multibillion-dollar incumbents like Toto, as well as newcomers such as Tushy and Luxe, have stormed the U.S. market, along with a flood of cut-rate manufacturers on Amazon. Bidets that promise to work with almost any toilet are now within reach of every American: Simple versions can be had for just $30.

Next they will be advocating for those 'special lawn sprinklers' for the homeless in San Francisco...

Honestly bidets > toilet paper. But don't those use electricity and water? Not sure how they're better for the environment? TP degrades in septic systems too.

Dumb SOBs.

Dunno I guess that what ain't taken for paper burns like a furnace, releasing so much pollution and carbon that their poop chutes ain't even in the margin.

The smoke from a quarter million acres a year (just here in MT) stands against their idiocy.
