Cloth diapers for a better environment this earth day, April 22, 2012 |
I invite you to consider "one less" diaper for Earth Day. What does this mean? It means either using one cloth diaper on Earth Day or going diaper free for a time period. Not only will this help you see how often your baby is peeing, but it will mean one less plastic diaper sitting in the landfill for an extremely long period of time.
Since, most commercial diapers use toxic bleach to make the paper diapers white, on top of the overall processing to create the poop catcher.
If you are already using cloth, consider more diaper-free time and consider practicing elimination communication. Since we know there is an impact on the environment due to washing diapers, one less a day may mean one less load a month. Diaper free time may not be the best for your couch, but it is great for airing out stinky diaper bottoms! Real Diapers for Real Babies, the tag line for the Real Diaper Association and a gentle reminder this Earth Week.
We're just a few days away from the Great Cloth Diaper Change as well!
