Not really "baby" interesting, but I found this on the diapers that Carrie and I have been using:
NRDC's This Green Life says, "gDiapers seem to have the environmental edge."
February 27, 2007
This month's edition of the Natural Resources Defense Council's This Green Life, authored by Sheryl Eisenberg, revisits the environmental diaper debate. The article states "gDiapers seem to have the environmental edge over more conventional choices because they send no material to the landfill, use no elemental chlorine or plastics, and require much less washing (therefore, less water and energy usage) than regular cloth diapers." Read the full article here.
Sheryl Eisenberg is a longtime advisor to the NRDC and writes the column, The Green Life, that is published by the NRDC. NRDC is the nation's most effective environmental action organization. They use law, science and the support of 1.2 million members and online activists to protect the planet's wildlife and wild places and to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all living things.
We've been pretty happy with them so far. Not much laundering, and they have been doing a better job containing leaks and blowouts than the disposable Pampers/Huggies that we occasionally use. Plus they're so darn cute!
