Soft Toilet Paper

The harvesting of millions of trees for toilet paper is caused by the desire for softer versions, which require the fiber from standing trees. Some of these trees are even being harvested from rare old-growth forests in Canada. The impact of this harvesting is two-fold; first, reducing the number of carbon-dioxide absorbing trees available and, second, destroying habitats for endangered species. Old growth trees which absorb carbon-dioxide and provide homes for our precious wildlife are more important than the softness of toilet paper.
