As a mother, I’m always trying to find ways to teach my children how to be good people. Lately, we’ve really been focusing on how we can all work together to keep our Earth clean. My son and I, in particular, have spent hours talking about recycling, reducing our trash, reusing what we can, and minimizing our energy usage, and he’s really getting into it – which is great….. until he calls me out for parts of my life that aren’t always as “green” as they could be. Just recently he was watching me change the baby’s diaper when he exclaimed, “Wow, you change a lot of diapers, that’s a LOT of stinky stuff.” Why yes Johnathon, that is a lot of stinky stuff! Then he told me, “You know Mom, that’s also a lot of trash, the Earth doesn’t like that much trash.” And of course he’s right. I use disposable diapers and that IS a lot of trash. But, for parents and caregivers like me, who use disposable diapers but still want to minimize our impact on the Earth, our friends at Seventh Generation have created a fantastic product. **I was provided this product and coupon code through the partnership of My Blog Spark and Seventh Generation. I received no compensation for this review and the opinions expressed are 100% my own.**

14 years agoI look at everything from a recycling perspective. If I can reuse it I will. I save old paper towels to pick things off the floor. not too dirty I wash heavy freezer bags and tin foil again if not too dirty. These are a few examples. Rita Spratlen rj_angel_house@yahoo.com
