Ladies remember when Stayfree used to make their ultra thin maxi%26#039;s with sphagnum moss in the centre core? They stopped using sphagnum moss because it was depleting the environment of it%26#039;s natural resources.
With the landfill waste of non organic feminie protection would you say that could also deplete the environment as well?

Best Answer

I don%26#039;t actually remember that, but that%26#039;s interesting. As for feminine products being bad for the environment, they are. They are used one and thrown away. I have a heavy period, so I started to feel bad about using so many pads and tampons. So I looked into an environmentally friendly alternative. I%26#039;ve been using reusable menstrual cups; I%26#039;ve used them for a couple of cycles and they work really well and while they are expensive at first, they save you money becuase they last years. www.divacup.com/

• yeah for sure but s. moss is used all over the world in extreamly large quanitys for a soilless potting mix hydroponics garderners who know there **** use it so i think they feed lies to the public cause that moss is thousands of years old and is dead when harvested and in huge amount in canada i mean there are huge swamp areas where it grows so to your question it it worse for our planet not to use it
• Doesn%26#039;t sphagnum moss cause disease in people? I thought they stopped using it because it can infect people if they have any type of a cut. It is not safe and often gardeners use it as peat moss and they can get the fungal disease sporotrichosis.
