Disposeable Nappies

I cannot understand why women of this day and age want to use disposeable nappies. You can get some really beaut bright coloured cloth nappies that hug and cling just as well as a disposeable one. The only thing the cloth nappies DON'T DO is foul up the environment. There are so many of these foul smelling plastics nappies (half the time not even emptied) that do not break down and add more pollution to our soils and air.

The problem is people are lazy, it is convenient for them. These cost a fortune over a few years, imagine what they can save.Don't they realize that the Earth has a problem, don't they want to make it better for their children and so on.

Wake up please, think of your children.

Where do you all get your information and statistics from? Do you all work for Choice? Have you read the studies Choice have done on disposables versus cloth nappies. Perhaps some knowledge would assist with some of the outrageous claims being made in this forum. I am all for saving the environment, but I certainly don't think the answer is posting information that is blatantly incorrect. That's better known as scaremongering.
