Just remember that its only the last couple of decades that disposables have been avaliable. 20 out of 6500 years... hmm.

Mmm not sure I understand your point?

Point being that hundreds of generations survived happily without disposable nappies. Meaning that doing without disposables is good for the enviroment, and not bad for parents.

Hundreds of generations have survived without lots anf lots of things.

Disposable nappies are a much better fit and therefore keep baby drier and cleaner.

having said that I still haven't made up my mind as to which is 'better'.

Well cloth nappies are cheaper and don't create waste that will clog up our world for generations- therefore you are being a better steward of your money and the enviroment. It is a no brainer really. Having my baby sit in plastic wrapping of pee and chemicals isn't exactly 'clean and dry'.

Why pick on just nappies? What about the waste and excess in the rest of our life?

Exactly. We should be more aware of what we are doing.

Recently became aware of how much organic stuff I was throwing out that could go back into the garden. Would save me money on fertaliser and compost.

This to me is all part of being in dominion of the earth, and being a good steward. Obviously I'm no greeny, but I'm starting to try.

I agree Dan- it is just that nappies are kinda on my mind right now:)
