Kleenex Hand Towels

I saw an ad for this completely unnecessary product in Parents magazine:

http://www.kleenex.com/handtowels/

I can't believe this product.  Who would introduce such a terrible thing into our already crowded waste stream?  Why would you need this?  If your towels are dirty, WASH THEM.  You don't need to replace them with throw aways.

I sent the following quick rant to Kleenex:

"I cannot even believe the irresponsibilty of this product.  In a world already overburdened with trash, you have the audacity to suggest that people shouldn't even use washable towels in their own homes.  This is a disgusting product.  We need less waste in the world not more.  And how is one's immune system supposed to function if it never meets any germs anyway?  This is a terrible product, a blot on our Earth, and I be holding Kimberly Clark responsible for it. "

Want to do the same?  Go here:  Let them know that this isn't a product the world needs or wants...

And send a message to Parents magazine telling them you don't appreciate them selling advertising for a product designed to scare parents about a non-problem and pollute the world at the same time.
