Well, Reduce Footprints has recycled her original eco-challenge. This week we are to SAY NO to purchasing or using paper towels.

Please check out my un-system of rags used for cleaning up a variety of messes.

I feel that its leaching effects as well as its role in landfill cluttering, and plastic production are too damaging, so I simply avoid it at all costs.
Just sent the below email to Henry’s Market, my favorite local health food/natural grocery store, who has recently been bought out by a larger health food chain, Sprouts.
