Go "Green" with stylish, affordable, quality reusable incontinence underwear

Adult briefs and protective underwear are used by many of the 25 million Americans suffering from incontinence.1  Our landfills receive 18 billion disposable diapers every year of which disposable diapers account for 1.5% of total municipal solid waste generation in landfills. 1,2    According to the U.S. National Park Service; Mote Marine Lab, Sarasota, FL it takes 450 years for a disposable diaper to decompose.3   Reducing the use of disposable incontinence undergarments is one step in waste prevention that can help  reduce greenhouse gas emissions.  Excessive greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere upset the natural atmospheric balance resulting in climate change.4

How does using reusable incontinence underwear help reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

  • Reducing the consumption of disposable diapers means fewer diapers are manufactured.5
  • Waste management includes the use of incinerators in the combustion of waste items such as adult diapers.4
  • Methane emissions from landfills occur when materials decompose.4
  • Keeping trees in the forest instead of wood pulp for absorbent diaper cores allows for them to filter carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 1,4
