Made of 100% reusable bamboo, these towels not only do the job faster and easier, but each is reusable for up to 100 times. These towels are the ultimate in recycling, since they’re washed and used again and again, they create less solid waste. What’s more, highly efficient commercial laundering uses far less water and energy than paper manufacturing. We are recommending you splurge for the case, so you have it on hand for the next covid19 wave in winter, but you can totally buy them one roll each for about $15.

Skip the TP and use still-available flushable baby wipes, which is – in general – the only decent option anyway.

On average, Americans use 57 sheets of toilet paper (TP) per day. Tushy is a modern bidet that easily clips to your toilet & transforms your health, hygiene and life. Tushy uses 1/8th gallon of water per use and harms no trees in the process, compared to traditional TP. TUSHY fits all standard toilets and some one-piece toilets and doesn’t require electricity or plumbing. Just unscrew the toilet seat, pop the TUSHY on, connect to water, and you’re done.
