Greenpeace wants us to "Wipe" away our Charmin.

[DesertMarine]

You guys beat me to all the good comebacks.  But, they'll get my 2ply, extra strong Charmin from my cold dead hands.

Or we could retrograde back to the old Sears & Roebuck catalog............OR......ye olde corn cobs.........

lets think about this for a second.


All of the paper produced in the USA gets thier pulp from 3 places:

1 recycled
2 trees planted strickly for the paper market
3 byproducts from the lumber industry.


Paper production is very green compared to most of the other industrys. 

We are not cutting down forest to make paper, we are cutting down plantations.


Can you tell I do alot of work for a very large printer?

I've talked with the paper  rep many times,( they not only sell paper, they also collect it for recycling) he has told me several times that recycling paper actually does more harm to the enviroment then harvisting trees does.   Has to do with the collection of the paper and the chemicals/energy needed to recycle the paper into plup.

The nasty chemicals in recycled paper are of course poisonous, just what you need for your microwave popcorn.

Hey, Greenpeace? Do you know the two reasons we shake hands with our right hands? It goes back to Roman times,  one reason was to show your weapon hand was empty.

The other reason was because the left hand was customarily used in lieu of virgin trees, you sloped-foerheaded flint-chippers!

It's STILL that way in the Arab world.

The toilet paper companies probably do what other paper companies do. For every single tree they cut down to make coffee filters, Melitta plants FOUR more trees. How many trees does Greenpeace plant compared to that?

[mnshooter]

If you get on the brady bunch mailing list they'll send you some toilet paper every so often.  I used to get them with postage paid return envelopes but was always reluctant to make some really good use of them.  Didn't want to get in trouble with the EPA.

Does sticking their heads up their asses count?
