This or That: Toilet paper or Bidet?
Toilet paper or a bidet?
When I first heard this question I was pretty sure I knew the answer, toilet paper (recycled, of course) has to be greener than a bidet with all its water usage, right? Wrong. This article makes a pretty good argument for the bidet, actually, citing the water-intensive toilet paper-making process, packaging, and transportation as solid arguments supporting the bidet as the more eco-friendly option.
There's only one catch: no using T.P. to dry your damp bidet-ed backside! (Go with a towel or washcloth instead).
