~300mm fabric masks per day in landfills? That sounds super eco-friendly.

  The idea is to rotate the masks, not to throw them away. You wear one then let it sit alone, without being touched, for a week or more. The next day you wear a new mask then do the same to it. A week later you can go back and wear the original mask again. Throwing them away after 1 use would be silly. I personally have enough masks, and few enough indoors engagements, to let my N95 sit for a full month between re-uses.

  That's nothing compared to Starbucks coffee cup waste precovid. And besides if you're arguing that we need to reduce landfill you shouldn't be advocating for any sort of anti-virus measures as any sort of population reduction will do more to reduce landfill than any sort of reusable mask could ever hope to accomplish.
