Whether from being sick, having allergies, or generally being a snotty person, chances are you’ve needed a Kleenex sometime in your life. Think of the waste created by all those wads of nose TP you’ve used over the years. One greener option is the trusty handkerchief. Not only is it reusable, but it provides a sturdier and stylish alternative to disposable tissues. Prove your fashion-forwardness with a chicly patterned kerchief, or show your love for the Earth and make it green. Just be sure to throw it in the wash every once in a while; being green needn’t be diametrically opposed to being clean. Handkerchieves: a classier, greenier way to dispose of phlegm.
