Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Product Description:

Seventh Generation Bathroom Tissue is made from 100% recycled paper, with a minimum of 80% post-consumer materials. Whitened with an environmentally safe process--never with chlorine bleach--this tissue is the healthy choice for your family and your environment.

Made from 100% Recycled Chlorine-Free Paper
By choosing Seventh Bathroom Tissue, you'll be making an important environmental difference immediately. These paper towels are not whitened with chlorine and are made from 100% recycled paper (80% post-consumer, 20% pre-consumer). Hypo-allergenic, unbleached, fragrance-free, and made without dyes or inks, this tissue paper is safe for septic systems and ideal for low-flow toilets.

Post-consumer paper is paper that has been recycled at home or at the office. Buying post-consumer paper helps finish the job you started--of saving the earth's natural resources, including trees, water, and energy. And using products made from post-consumer recycled materials helps reduce the need for virgin wood pulp, which means more trees are left standing. Trees naturally absorb carbon dioxide--a greenhouse gas that's the primary contributor to global warming. In fact, a single tree, over its lifetime, absorbs about one tone of CO2. To put it another way, a ton of recycled paper saves seventeen trees.

If every household in the U.S. replaced just one roll of 500 sheet virgin fiber bathroom tissue with 100% recycled ones, we could save 448,000 trees, 1.1 million cubic feet of landfill space (equal to 1,700 full garbage trucks), and 161 million gallons of water, which is a year's supply for 1,270 families of four!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Better than you think!
I've bought other Seventh Generation products because I like to be environmentally friendly. I've purchased and liked their cleaning products, laundry detergent and paper towels - all of which I've been very happy with. I was never wanted to purchase the toilet paper because I was afraid it would be rough or fall apart. I accidentally bought the toilet paper by mistake. I thought I picked up the paper towels until I got home and realized I bought the wrong thing. Instead of returning the toilet paper, I tried it out. I was pleasantly surprised. It's just as durable as other toilet paper brands. It might not be as soft as a name brand ultra soft version, but it'd not as bad as public restroom toilet paper either! I've made the switch and added this to my repertoire of Seventh Generation products I buy.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Price - Good Product
I was a little wary of buying this toilet paper since I'm used to using super soft stuff, but this really works great. It's not the softest or most absorbent(in comparison to other name brands) but the fact that it's good for the environment and does it's job well, works for me. :)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - green toilet paper
this is the cheapest way to buy this product. it's expensive at the grocery store. it lasts a long time and you can feel good about saving the planet. it has minimal packaging that you can toss in the recycle bin (paper plus a cardboard box, even the cardboard rolls when you're finished with the roll).

it's the best way to buy a product that everyone uses. go green!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - An adventure in elimination!
I'm about to purchase my 4th case. My spouse and I actually like the texture, but as an always-itchy person, I like a rough bath towel, too. (I can't imagine why people find plush towels and toilet paper pleasant - what kind of wussies are all you whiners, anyway? ;-)

Three modest complaints: (1) It is hard to tear this cleanly from the roll, and I have actually yanked the roller out of the holder on a couple of occasions. Aaargh. (2) This tissue also falls apart fairly easily when used too sparingly, so it is not quite as Earth-friendly in that regard as I would hope. But it is much stronger than the dreadful single-ply. (3) I have a hard time imagining why the price is as high as it is. Quite a few of 7th Generation products go digging a little more deeply into my pocketbook than seems warranted. Perhaps they don't have enough competition.

All in all, though, I find this tissue worth purchasing again. It is a little cheaper by the case.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good, but not Softest!!
This is not as soft as Charmin, however this is better for the environment!! I do not mind using it as our everyday toilet paper. It does the job without falling to pieces or being irritating!!

On paper, the Mio DigiWalker P550 looks to be an attractive gadget for the mobile professional, combining the capabilities of a PDA and GPS into one device. However, its poor battery life and subpar navigation skills tell a different story.

Though it won't appeal to the masses quite yet, the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet is a nice, portable device for on-the-go Web browsing, and it has some worthy upgrades.

Though it has a few design and performance glitches, the Sony Ericsson W300i is a quality, basic MP3 cell phone.

Diesel vehicles have nearly a 50-percent market share in Europe, thanks to tax incentives and diesel-friendly legislation across the EU. Diesels are so passé there that you can buy a BMW 730d and no one will think it odd that your luxury car burns oil. Pull up in a diesel 7-Series in America and people would leer at you like you've alighted from an amphibious vehicle reeking of saltwater and dead trout.

But now, thanks to the oft-reported combo of newly-raised CAFE standards, not-so-newly-raised gas prices, and the 50-state diesel engine, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are about to dip more than a hesitant toe into the diesel game. Chrysler offers a diesel in the Grand Cherokee, but soon all three automakers will offer diesels in their best-selling lineups of light trucks -- the Dodge Ram 1500 is expected to offer a 50-state diesel after 2009. Light trucks are being used to lead the charge since those buyers stand to gain the most with the least amount of (perceived) sacrifice.

Diesels currently have 3.2-percent of the American market. Some estimates put them at 15-percent by 2015. That's a huge leap, and diesel still has plenty of hurdles. Diesels will come with a cost premium over gasoline-engined cars. That should be easy enough to conquer -- incentives and some quick cost and longevity calculations should convince people of the benefit. The real hurdle is the nagging issue of perception. The plan will probably be to attack that with a price that makes the proposition unbeatable. Said Chrysler's director of environmental affairs, "If it's priced right, we can sell diesel here. Diesel can give you an immediate poke in fuel economy -- 20 to 40 percent. Not many technologies can deliver that today."
