Description
When I run the numbers to compare this product to others ranked by the NRDC report, this looks like a solid C (but could be higher if more information were available). This puts it behind six other papers graded A and two with a B grade. I will say that this is a company that has great potential. They’re great marketers. Their product seems to be well-liked. I like that they are a B Corporation, and they seem to be funding good things in the developing world. If they would clean up their act on transparency and truly demonstrating how green their product is, as does their competition, then I’ll be a believer. Reply Both recycled and bamboo have their pros and cons with respect to the environment, and a great place to read more about that is in the 2019 report by the NRDC, “The Issue with Tissue: How Americans are Flushing Forests Down the Toilet.”
Nosowitz, Dan (2019-07-17). "What's the deal with all this fancy new toilet paper?". Vox . Retrieved 2022-03-02. Of course, some brands do use recycled materials, but incredibly this has decreased over the past few years, despite a strong rise in interest in environmentalism, recycling and finding alternatives to single-use plastics. COVID has undeniably propelled this decrease with the use of single-use masks and PPE, along with a rise in single-use coffee cups and other utensils in a bid to stop the spread of the virus.a b Henderson, Emma (2021-07-27). "Plastic Free July: Why we should all swap to this eco-friendly loo roll that helps to save trees". The Independent . Retrieved 2022-03-02. If you’re looking to get your hands on some high-quality toilet paper, you’ll be happy to hear that the brand ships to Australia, the UK, Europe, the US, and Canada.
That’s why our recycled toilet tissue is made from 100% recycled paper. This includes post-consumer waste paper (things like textbooks, workbooks, office paper, etc) and a small percentage (around 5%) of post-industrial paper. This means offcuts from nearby paper factories which our partners buy and re-purpose to make tissue paper. By using recycled paper, we’re reducing our CO2 and particulate matter emissions, as well as saving water.” ( https://support.whogivesacrap.org/hc/en-us/articles/360035166774-100-Recycled-Toilet-Paper) If you’re trying to be more eco-friendly, finding more sustainable solutions to products you use every day is an easy way to lower your impact. Stasher bags and reusable totes might have helped you cut down on your single-use plastic waste, but the paper products you throw away and flush down your toilet every day also have a devastating impact on the environment. it works great! It’s strong enough for the job. We’ve had barely any issues with “bits on the bum”, “poking” through or leaking through. So, although Who Gives A Crap’s toilet paper is not the cheapest available, it’s actually rather average. You do have to pay more for the more premium bamboo toilet paper, but the recycled toilet paper is more environmentally friendly anyway.Nothing in this article discusses the bleaches used in toilet paper. I’ve not been able to find any information on whether Who Gives a Crap paper uses chorine bleach, which basically results in putting poison into the waterways. If it’s not discussed, then it’s quite possible that this paper uses chlorine instead of the environmentally benign alternatives. If going totally zero-waste is a little too much for your toosh, then switching to Who Gives a Craprecycled toilet paper is the next best thing. Which is to say the Who Gives a Crap Review went pretty swell.
