Use baby washcloths instead of napkins and paper towels. You can use the same one per child all day with a quick rinse between meals. Even use them as napkins for adults. Then toss them in the laundry. You'll help the Earth and save a bundle of money.

I am an Elementary school teacher. When I first started teaching I saw the overwhelming amounts of wasted paper that we produced. In a lesson I was teaching on the rain forest, I found out that for every roll of paper towel, a tree is cut down. My students and I were in shock. We immediately started recycling paper in our class. I began giving the students Earth friendly homework like turn off the water while you brush your teeth or use cloth napkins instead of paper. My students and I became increasingly aware of the environment and began a school wide paper recycling project. This led to me starting the environment club and raising awareness. The funny thing is that I recently got married and my name is now Mrs. Green. The children all thinks it's a very funny coincidence. I am now looking into changing my home into am earth friendly home and getting an ethanol powered car. I love Seventh Generations products and will be a customer for life!
