Use less paper napkins when eating out AND at home

There’s no need to grab a huge stack of napkins from the concession stand when you know you’ll only use one or two. Each North American consumes an average of 2,200 standard two-ply napkins per year, or the equivalent of just over six of these napkins per day. If everyone used an average of one fewer napkin per day, more than a billion pounds of napkins could be saved from landfills each year. A stack of napkins this size could fill the entire Empire State Building. Use this philosophy for your home and use cloth over paper to save money.[Reuse to save]
