A press release from The Nappy Network has been made public on the Scoop Independent News Website. Here’s a few snippets:
Kimberly-Clark quote a 2005 UK study by the Environment Agency…this study has already been discredited ….
Even in its flawed state, it actually DOES show that cloth nappies cause LESS harm to the environment overall ….
Disposables are the single largest product category of household waste, costing Christchurch ratepayers around $600,000 a year to landfill just disposables…
Just one child in cloth nappies will save around 2 tonnes of solid waste from going to landfill.
