It comes up over and over again, “Are cloth diapers really better for the environment than disposables?” Popular magazines, newspapers and disposable diaper manufacturers often come to the conclusion that it’s a toss up, environmentally, between cloth and disposable diapers. I think this is laughable! Here’s a link to Green Baby Diapers, in which one of my favorite bloggers quite succinctly explains why cloth is sooooooo much greener.
Now don’t get overwhelmed at the end of Tiffany’s blog post, when she starts listing and recommending different cloth diapers. I know that the challenge of choosing a cloth diaper can be quite paralizing. Just go with BumGenius One-Size diapers. You won’t be sorry. I explain why they’re best here. It’s found in part of my website called “Cloth Diapers Explained”.
I think bumgenius are good diapers, but not everyone can afford that kind of price. They are one of the most expensive ones out there, prefolds with a diaper cover are way less expensive and work just as good.
