She is funny and to-the-point. I am feeling rather virtuous now that I now can finally remember to bring my own shopping bags almost every time! I love Tina’s writing style.

Creating and maintaing a market for recycled items is how recycling is made viable. Take another look at the napkins and paper towels in the store next time you have a chance -- consider recycled.

I also use the rags and baby washcloths to wipe up my messy kids' faces and hands after lunch instead of using paper towels. Another, is using a Diva Cup instead of pads and tampons. Also, we use real plates and glasses all the time instead of disposable. Pretty much anything that is disposable has an alternative; just think it through. I do the cloth napkins, too.

Use cloth. Buy a dozen -- or two dozen for larger families. Again, toss them into every wash load. So what if they're slightly stained after a while? I bought a 12-pack of paper towels and a pack of napkins about 3 years ago. I'm still using them up. I save the paper towels for really disgusting clean-ups and the paper napkins for food on the run -- stuff we're taking with us, in the car, etc. To go along with your paper towel idea (I almost NEVER use them either) are paper napkins.
