The first question that needs to be asked is what is the reason for the tube in the first place?
Then its a short hop to spotting the potential problem.

Now kids will never the joys of taping two tubes together and making “binoculars?” How sad.
To: Sub-Driver
Pretty soon, it ain't gonna be fun to be a kid anymore.
I made many a (not so) high-flying rocket from TP and PT tubes back in my younger years.

They will remove the tube and double the price of the toilet paper. It’s now a green product.

Honestly, the phrase reduce waste shouldn’t follow toilet paper.

Nearly 17 billion toilet paper tubes are produced annually in the US alone, according to to Kimberly-Clark with
most consumers throwing out used tubes. ____________________________________________
Say that again?
I'm drawing a blank here. Just exactly what can you do with a used toilet paper tube? Why save them?

Well, green ain't the color your fingers will be when you try to use it.
I would imagine - like Haynes T-shirts getting rid of their shirt labels - that dumping (no pun intended) the "tube" will result in a considerable savings to KC, which equates to higher profits, which - in the end (another no pun intended) is what the green movement (still, no pun intended) is all about.

Is this a surprise? I can't imagine that the list of things to do with used toilet paper tubes is very long...

lol, I have been tossing those roll cores into the recycle forever already. it is like a cardboard box or the core from wrapping paper or paper towels
To: Sub-Driver
They have been using these in europe for years. The one thing I observed is the rolls flatten easily, especially when getting near the end of the roll. And then there is the tissue quality which is a half-step up from sandpaper.

How about chip bags. There is nothing in 3/4 of the bag. I know stuff like that settles but not that much.Some of the chip companies came out with a bag that breaks down quicker. Heard the company received complaints because the bag makes too much noise when handled and they won’t be making it any more. Ugh... wear ear plugs. There are somethings we can do to be more eco friendly but a tube of tp is biodegrdable..

Bleh, envirowimps. They need to go real hard core, how bout a washrag?

Who has time to put the TP on the roller anyway?
