The Best Eco Friendly Toilet Paper
[ if only pooping was this fun ]
5 Minute Read
About 27,000 trees are flushed down our toilets every year. What’s crazy about this stat is: 75% of the world doesn’t even use toilet paper, due to lack of plumbing and funds. But as the developing world adopts modern advances like indoor plumbing, our global TP reliance is gonna go through the roof. The problem is: we can’t keep cutting down precious forests just for our daily bowel movements. We gotta come up with a better solution. You see, most TP is made using virgin fibers (wood pulp), which means a whole lotta trees are being cut down just so you can wipe your tushy clean everyday. But the good news is: you can maintain your bathroom hygiene without putting so much pressure on our forests. But how? With eco friendly toilet paper of course!! Eco friendly TP is marking its territory (pun intended) in the bathroom category. But the question is: which one should you choose?
Well, I’ve gone ahead and done the research for you…
Here are the best eco-friendly toilet paper options on the market:

Bamboo toilet papers are safe and highly sustainable toilet papers, which is eco friendly also.
The fact you have added in this post “About 27,000 trees are flushed down our toilets every year.” makes me to think that how carelessly we are cutting down our trees. Thanks for sharing this amazing post.
Unbleached toilet paper is generally produced through sustainable means. The raw material doesn’t include tree fibers. Recycled paper is also used. But you may have heard or thought that it can have a rough texture.
