33 billion disposable nappies per year in the EU. That's a lot of landfill! If you, or your partner, are pregnant, aim to save £10 a week for nappies, then try a hire kit from a nappy library to try them out. #RNW2023 #ChooseToReuse #TimeForaNappyChange

Water and energy prices continue to increase. Cloth nappies are still the economical choice. If you can't pay upfront, and your credit is all gone, ask your nearest cloth nappy library if they do long-term loans. #RNW2023 #ChooseToReuse #TimeForaNappyChange

Cloth nappies use 97.5% fewer resources than disposable nappies. Local authorities are paying for the nappies in child benefit and again for their collection and disposal. Ask your councilors why. #RNW2023 #ChooseToReuse #TimeForaNappyChange

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and "safe" temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯. 🧵, please RT. #BeyondGrowth2023 1/
