Limit using this to make Earth really meaningful

Environmental protection is very important, and everyone knows how to use a lot of paper is not good. But the real harm of this habit is not many people understand.

Paper towels have indeed become a necessity in our lives. It is attached to all human activities, from making toilet paper, cleaning paper, wiping sweat, even many people use it instead of wiping cloths because of disposable convenience and throwing it away.

Knowing that using a lot of paper is definitely not good. However, we still do not really understand how the habit of using too much toilet paper can cause terrible consequences.

Too wrong.

Harm is not small for the environment

Paper towels can be 2 - 3 layers floating in the aroma of the style, but after all it is still paper, but the paper is made from trees, meaning to cut down the tree to make it. And in fact, the paper industry has created talking numbers, enough to make anyone shudder:

1. The paper industry is the third largest industry causing global warming.
2. To produce each roll of paper requires about 140 liters of water (37 gallons), 1.3 kilowatt of electricity and 0.4 kg of wood .In the US alone, according to the statistics of Justin Thomas - editor of website metaefficient.com - they consumed 473.587.5 million gallons of water, 17.3 terawatt electricity and 253,000 tons of chlorine bleach to produce 36.5 billion rolls of toilet paper every year.
3. Every day the world loses 27,000 trees just to produce toilet paper.
4. We emit about 254 million tons of waste paper towels every year worldwide.

Really?

What should we do to contribute to environmental protection?

If you told me not to use paper towels, it was very difficult, it was attached to our lives as something too essential. However, there are ways you can do to help protect the environment.

First, save the amount of paper towels you use: Don't waste too much, especially get rid of the habit of using a large amount of paper just to clean a small amount of water.

According to statistics from Recyclenation.com, if every American household cuts 1 roll of 70 round paper, 544,000 trees will be saved each year. If each family uses less than 3 rolls of paper, the amount of waste reduced will be up to 120,000 tons, saving $ 4.1 million (about 93 billion VND) of waste disposal costs.

The paper industry has created enough talking numbers to make anyone shudder.

Think about it: so many children, poor people don't have a piece of bread to live on. If instead of processing waste caused by waste, why not transfer that amount to them? That is really a meaningful job.

Using a towel to wipe is also a bad solution. Please return to the tradition of our parents when in the kitchen always have a few rags, finished washing and drying to continue using.

The production and use of cloths instead of paper towels saves energy and emits less greenhouse gases. Such towels have a very long shelf life, saving you money.

There is also a relatively . delicate issue, which is to use paper after going to the toilet.

Instead of using paper, you can replace it with toilet spray. When bathing, you wash all the dirt on your body with water, so for whatever reason did you leave the "that" place?

Using clean water is much more than using paper and the risk of spreading food-borne illnesses due to unwashed hands is minimized. Every time we use a spray, we consume 0.47 liters of water only, and absolutely no trees are cut down or any solid waste is released into the environment for that.
