Simple Truth (Kroger) is what we use. They seem to have changed their packaging
recently, look for it.

Also, there’s “Whogivesacrap” you can buy online and Simple Truth really isn’t
that much more expensive!

Great suggestion, Judy! We have ordered REEL toilet paper made from bamboo and
actually given it as gifts to help spread the word (like to all the members of
grandkid's class). Last year, we did a display for the whole small school on
bamboo with examples of things made from bamboo, including REEL toilet paper.

The Natural Resources Defense Council has led the charge on this one. Their
report a few years back blamed a large chunk of boreal clearcutting
deforestation on making toilet paper from 100% virgin forests. Making it super
important that we all buy the 100% recycled paper products that are easy to
find at most supermarkets.

Subject: [birdky] Another back field afternoon
Monday afternoon I returned to the back field. This time it was to cut up and
remove a fallen Sassafras from the only route through the pine thicket. Twenty
two swallows were in close formation on the power line near my point of
destination. I think all were either Tree or Rough-winged Swallows but reported
most as swallow sp. Upon returning to the house, I sat a few minutes before
Alison accompanied me over the same route, sans ax and pruning saw. As I sat, a
Bluebird got a drink from the bird bath. I rarely see Bluebirds in the yard.
I often include incidental details in bird reports that may not seem ‘bird
related’, however, the food that birds eat is bird related. That fallen
Sassafras blocking the trail died a few years ago. So has every other large
Sassafras tree on this place, from laurel wilt disease. Young stump suckers are
all that remain of that species on this place. Young stump suckers don’t
produce berries. Weeds coming up on the trail include Japanese chaff flower,
which birds don’t eat. Habitat degradation of this sort, despite my intent for
this place to be ‘bird friendly’ is an ongoing concern of mine.
That habitat degradation isn’t merely happening on this place. A book I’m
currently reading says the Northern boreal forest is fast disappearing as an
ecotone. That’s where White-crowned Sparrows breed.
