Paper towels? Environmentally unsound.
I don't see why these paper towels would not be 100% recyclable or that much different to regular toilet paper. Also, what if people would like to wash other body parts that can't be put in an airblade e.g. face?
- penagwin 7y agoI'm not sure why you're being downvoted, I mean I know why people are but I don't think they should be. You're forgetting that we have to create paper towels/toilet paper, etc. from trees. And we aren't just talking a few trees, it's a deforestation issue. Sure we could replant trees, etc, etc, but it still destroys the current eco-systems living there.
- merpnderp 7y agoAs long as they come from farmed trees and wind up composted, they're actually sinking carbon out of the air. Maybe it's not a net win because of the energy used to create them and move them around, but towel itself will lock its carbon in the soil for quite some time.
