Drop the Disposables, Part 2
Is there life after paper
towels?
When I first suggested to
Mike that we stop using paper towels, he was skeptical. It's easy
to
see why--they're the go-to fix for almost any mess. Tear one off
to
clean up a spill on the floor or use them to drain our beloved
bacon.
It was a hard sell, harder in fact than any other green switch we
made. But really, it's so easy and inexpensive to replace your
paper
towels with more sustainable options....

I quit using paper towels ages ago. Mainly because I never could remember to buy them. I like flour sack towels. They last forever and a day and soak up anything. And for the bacon dripping newspapers... boy! They are really great as fire starters in the woodstove!
