Bathroom Tissue, also called Toilet Paper by an enormous number of people, obviously uses a lot of trees over time. Can you imagine how many trees it would save if we all stopped using toilet paper? Okay, going without the use of toilet paper is obviously not the answer to cutting back on how many trees are cut down, no pun intended. However, there is a way to possibly reduce the amount. How? Well, what about eco-friendly toilet paper? While there aren’t a lot of various companies coming out with eco-friendly toilet paper there are a few, which you will see in the list of toilet papers that I provided for you below, all of which can be bought online.
At the moment there aren’t very many places to purchase eco-friendly toilet paper but there are a lot more than before. Locally, you should be able to find a toilet paper sold under the brand name of Seventh Generation in stores such as Walgreens, Walmart, and Winn-Dixie. If you come across any other local stores that carry eco-toilet paper locally please don’t be afraid to post a comment with the name of the store.
