    Of course I know that. My point was to be aware of your environmental
    footprint. And unless it is as small as it can possibly be, it is
    inconsistent to worry about just one aspect of it. 

    I don't use paper towels either, I use cloth towels, but an
    environmental expert friend argues I'm doing more damage by using so
    much water! 

    All the choices are complicated and it's hard to win.
