Opting Out of a Broken System

Who sold us on toilet paper? I guess we can assume it evolved as we progressed with more efficient ways to handle our human droppings. And we don’t get the Sears Catalog anymore, the old form of early toilet paper. Cutting down trees to make toilet paper has gotten to a point of being a very expensive habit that’s due for a big makeover!   The bidet is a good invention. Even so, they aren’t widely used in the US and other parts of the world where water is a concern. Increasingly that concern is growing in the continental US too. Water is an increasingly scarce commodity.
  Here’s where the PeePod comes in:
    • The PeePod system is for women to use for pee.
    • The system is so easy to use.
    • You save lots of money.
    • The bamboo cloth wipes last for years.
    • They are soft and dare we say even sensuous!.
    • They don’t get flushed away.
    • They don’t clog septic systems and sewers.
    • They don’t require trees to be cut down.
    • About 83,000 trees a day are cut for toilet paper just for peeing.
    • They don’t require huge amounts of water and chemicals to produce, like toilet paper does.
    • You don’t have to constantly buy toilet paper.
    • Did we say how soft they are?
    • You will feel fabulous knowing how you are helping to save trees.
    • Oh, and if you have a bidet already, The PeePod cloths are excellent for drying off with, too.
 

You are flushing trees (or bamboo) toilet paper down your toilet! Doesn’t that sound insane? Women, why would you do that when you could save over two thirds of all the toilet paper you are using by simply using reusable, soft cloths?

 

This is your chance to make a big impact. What if a quarter of women in the US used a PeePod? That would be about 20,000 trees a day saved from cutting for TP. In a year that’s 7.5 million trees saved! That’s a lot of carbon not released into the atmosphere. This is the point: we need our forests to sequester carbon and clean our air. We’ve got to stop cutting them down! Time to tree hug and save our forests.
