The Eco Leaf Toilet Tissue has hit the shelves. Supplied by the good folks at Suma ( a workers cooperative), it comes in a 100% cornstarch compostable wrap called Bioplast. Just so you know, Bioplast is certified to EN 13432 and confirms to the European OK Compost Standard. Made of potato starch it is similar to biobags I am guessing. The rolls themselves are 100% recycled paper and Suma donate some of their profits to www.treesponsibility.com. You cant get a greener bum though at £1.99 for four it is a tad pricy.

If you live in Huddersfield you can buy these at Half Moon Health Foods. Address: 6 Half Moon Street Huddersfield West Yorkshire HD1 2JJ. Region: Yorkshire & The Humber. Telephone: 01484 456392 …

  • Plastic lasts for ever and we are using it to make one use, throwaway items. We have created everlasting rubbish and plastic litter is increasing exponentially. Plastic pollution is destroying the landscape, killing wildlife and poisoning the seas.
    .
    Evidence is also emerging that the plastic we use in everyday to wrap our food, wear next to our skin and use to decorate our homes may well be poisoning us.
