Did you know that the average disposable diaper can take 500 years to break down in a landfill? Gross. That is disgusting in more ways than one. I came across a link to some eco-friendly diapers called gDiapers this weekend while on another website. I don't have kids in diapers anymore,(thank goodness), but if I did, I would definately try these. The gDiaper website says that when you are ready to toss the diapers you can home compost, toss or flush the biodegradable gRefill and they only take 50-150 days to break down. Here is what I found...
