Second Nature

Save A Tree, Wipe Differently

Jayme Tip: Next time you are in the grocery store, pick up the environmentally-friendly toilet paper which is unbleached, chlorine-free and, if possible, 100 percent recycled.

Did you know that two-ply designer toilet paper is an expensive luxury? The two-ply toilet paper you see in the stores is normally from plantation-grown or native forest trees. However, there are recycled environmentally-friendly options which are just as soft for those sensitive rear-ends.

Every ton of paper recycled saves 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, 4,000 kilowatts of electricity, 3 cubic yards of landfill and 7,000 gallons of water. You can make a difference by choosing recycled toilet paper over plantation-grown or native forest trees.
