ECOBABY AND NAPPY DISPOSAL

Baby nappies make up a large volume of all waste sent for disposal.   Most informed sources suggest a figure of 4.5%  of domestic waste is made up of baby nappies.   If recyclable materials are removed from the waste stream, nappies make up 15% of domestic waste.    So what can be done about this?    Well,
a company called "ecobaby" (they have an office in Dublin), supply nappies which are environmentally friendly.   Personal experience suggests that econappies are as good as, and are the same cost as those nappies generally available in the supermarkets.   They can be posted direct to your door.   For more info. ring ecobaby at Call Save l850-52-52-53 or check out their Website at http://www.ecobaby.ie.
