Nov 6, 2014 at 17:54 comment added sbell @JasonC using just a few pieces (2-3) is NOT "using tons of tissues every time you urinate." And it may very well be worth the 'expense' if it improves hygene
Nov 6, 2014 at 16:57 comment added DBedrenko @user2023861 On the contrary, it appears that deforestation is happening for the purpose of paper production. Link1 Link2 Link3 Link3 (in indonesia)
Nov 6, 2014 at 16:01 comment added user2023861 @NewWorld, paper? No. I'm not saying that deforestation isn't happening. I'm saying it's not due to paper production. If you're so concerned about "global tree genocide", but you think toilet paper usage is the culprit, you're not very well informed.
Nov 6, 2014 at 14:43 comment added DBedrenko @user2023861 Are you implying that no significant number of trees outside of the ones in sustainable tree farms are used for the production of paper?
Nov 6, 2014 at 14:24 comment added user2023861 @NewWorld. Wrong. We have tree farms meant for paper production just like we have lettuce farms meant for lettuce production. This is all sustainable. Neither of these has anything to do with the Amazonian rain forest. I'm not sure how that's relevant.
Nov 6, 2014 at 14:13 comment added DBedrenko @user2023861 Right, but to replenish the supply of lettuce is not so difficult: you just allocate more land to grow it on. But just try to restore the vast acres of rich Amazonian rainforest; don't forget to restore the wildlife and native peoples, too. Besides the consequences of reduced supply of lettuce is inconsequential, whereas forests help fight global warming. Yours is a bad analogy.
Nov 6, 2014 at 13:57 comment added user2023861 @NewWorld, I'm pointing out a simple analogy. Lettuce : Lettuce Farms :: Paper : Tree Farms.
Nov 6, 2014 at 8:25 comment added DBedrenko @user2023861 Yes, I suppose you are, assuming that that, by eating more lettuce--thereby increasing demand--it doesn't entice farmers to grow more of it to meet the increased demand. I'm not sure how this is relevant though.
Nov 6, 2014 at 4:31 comment added Jason C @user2023861 No, but using tons of tissues every time you urinate is wasteful, regardless of how much salad you eat.
Nov 5, 2014 at 21:38 comment added user2023861 @NewWorld, when I eat a salad am I contributing to the global lettuce shortage?
Nov 5, 2014 at 10:44 comment added DBedrenko Using tissues every time you urinate--when you don't have to--is wasteful and contributes to the global tree genocide.
