Toe Eelot Pae Pur stele/10 no doodoo-paper at our place for years no more Toe Ee Lot Pay Purr we’ve have got class do not fear It’s not to save money I won’t use Toe Ee Lot Pay Purr so the critters play and tigers can purr for me because I can get a fresher butt put used poopy paper in a basket it dries fast and does not smell. It feels soooo good to be pooing this way. As far as the trash company, compared to the poopy diapers going into trash cans, nooo comparison. (Thanks to Baby Boomer at Treehugger for saying that’s how they do it in some places in Greece.) So again, I am looking for a co-writer and performer. Should the title be Toy Lat Pae Purr instead? Toe Eelot Pae Purr stele/10 pee squared or doo squared when its time for 1 or 2 for the future critters and children toy lat pae purr ask your hand to play fair note s for another tp song I hear natures call each day is it waters from the meadows (mountains) I hear natures call each day for or two loo is it the trees from the fields I drank it not long ago I hear the tree that gave me fruit ere is little time to delay voices from the forests and the lakes and saying now is the time to choose pee pee and poo poo yet when it’s wiping time to show I care when its time to squat for these choose the way of love toy lat pae purr ==== Here are some relevant TP posts. More notes: I like using phone books and junk mail for toilet paper. Adding water to the paper makes for non-toxic, super clean bottom. So first, I sacrifice by using non-cushy paper. But second, I celebrate knowing that some critters and future kids will be smiling a bit more because my pooping methodology. We – three roomates – have not used toilet paper in our house for over four years… scooby doo doo. Our used “phonebook poo paper” goes into the waste basket, and then the regular trash can. We don’t notice any additional odor in the bathroom or the trashcan. The relatively small amount of poo dries quickly on our ultra eco toilet paper. And even IF there were a slight to modest additional odor I would give a little smell-wise to give back a bunch life-wise. And thus, we do have a clean and sweet smelling home. By the way – compared to our phonebook poo paper – way dirtier dog doo and diapers are put into trash cans. I really do want to co-write an eco poo paper song with someone. www.VoxErth.net I like to help save the forests by using newspaper, phone directories and book pages when I go to the bathroom… cleaner and more fun than tp. Adding water to the paper makes it soft and for super clean bottoms. We have been using non-toilet-paper-paper at our place for over almost 2 years now. One big telephone phone book has lasted us 10 months. It’s not to save bucks, it’s to save those forest gems and it’s actually better. Yes, we still have a roll hanging in the bathroom for guests that we forget to coach. Reusing other paper as “Toe Ee Lot Pay Purr” is just sooo satisfying for me because I can get a fresher butt, and it saves our sweet forests and the critters. Our used poopy paper goes into the trash basket beside the toilet, then it goes in the regular trash after that. Because it’s fairly low humidity here in Colorado, it dries fast and does not smell. It feels soooo good to be pooing this way. As far as the trash company, compared to the poopy diapers going into trash cans, nooo comparison.

WWF continues putting pressure on Asia Pulp & Paper: Their report, Don't Flush Tiger Forests finds that toilet paper, paper towels and tissues made from APP fiber are rapidly expanding into US supermarkets, restaurants, and hotels under the Paseo and Livi brands.
APP is the fifth-largest tissue producer in the world. Despite continued pressure from environmental groups APP and its affiliates continue expanding into new areas of Indonesian rainforest.
Since APP began in Indonesia in 84, an area of rainforest on Sumatra totaling 5 million acres have been destroyed.

American taste for soft toilet roll 'worse than driving Hummers'Extra-soft, quilted and multi-ply toilet roll made from virgin wood causes more damage than gas-guzzlers, fast food or McMansions, say campaigners
The tenderness of the delicate American buttock is causing more environmental devastation than the country's love of gas-guzzling cars, fast food or McMansions, according to green campaigners. At fault, they say, is the US public's insistence on extra-soft, quilted and multi-ply products when they use the bathroom.
"This is a product that we use for less than three seconds and the ecological consequences of manufacturing it from trees is enormous," said Allen Hershkowitz, a senior scientist at the Natural Resources Defence Council.
"Future generations are going to look at the way we make toilet paper as one of the greatest excesses of our age. Making toilet paper from virgin wood is a lot worse than driving Hummers in terms of global warming pollution." Making toilet paper has a significant impact because of chemicals used in pulp manufacture and cutting down forests. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/feb/26…

Last year, the New York Times reported on the staggering environmental impact of making super-soft toilet paper from virgin forests. But now, according to this week's cover story in Chemical & Engineering News, it's getting harder to make soft TP out of recycled paper: As consumers ditch magazines, newspapers, and paper bills in favor of the electronic versions, companies that produce recycled paper products are facing a shortage of raw materials.
One major problem is offices are using less white paper—which is coveted by producers of recycled toilet paper because its long fibers make for a softer product. That means manufacturers are now using lower-quality recycled paper, so the fibers are shorter and produce a rougher product—and the more times paper gets recycled, the shorter those fibers become. The challenge, then, is for companies to figure out how to do more with less:
Chemical companies that supply papermakers with bleaching and processing aids are introducing new products to make those fibers go further. The best of them also reduce costs by helping paper mills recycle water and save energy.
Mr. Whipple Left It Out: Soft Is Rough on Forests By LESLIE KAUFMAN http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/26/science/earth/2…
Americans like their toilet tissue soft: exotic confections that are silken, thick and hot-air-fluffed.
The national obsession with soft paper has driven the growth of brands like Cottonelle Ultra, Quilted Northern Ultra and Charmin Ultra — which in 2008 alone increased its sales by 40 percent in some markets, according to Information Resources, Inc., a marketing research firm.
But fluffiness comes at a price: millions of trees harvested in North America and in Latin American countries, including some percentage of trees from rare old-growth forests in Canada. Although toilet tissue can be made at similar cost from recycled material, it is the fiber taken from standing trees that help give it that plush feel, and most large manufacturers rely on them.
