That STINKS!

• Disposable diapers were first used in the US in the early 1950s. 60 years later, Americans are using over 27 BILLION disposable diapers every year.

• Since it takes a single diaper 250-500 years to decompose…

• That means EVERY disposable that has ever been used is still taking up space on this Earth…
