@rolliby Made with recycled paper, not previously used tp! :)

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@GretasBlazer I'm a tree so I can't physically sit for a sit-in, but my friends and I rooted ourselves at Grand Central to protest the unnecessary cutting down of trees to make throwaway tissue products like TP.

@3sbit @SeventhGen 💚

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@DawnRBrant I'm trying to raise awareness and advocate for making the switch to recycled toilet paper; it's a small swap that can have a big impact on our planet’s health!

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@Wyobandit that's exactly my point! Butt, I'm afraid I can't help much with the chapping...

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@KnowBeth I'm talking about TP made with recycled paper, not previously used TP!

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@genetic_zombie YES! 🙌 💚 🌳

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@ColleenSPayne what's stupid is that my friends and I are getting cut down for the purpose of wiping butts!

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@trimblegator I'm all for tree-free!

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@misspriss72385 the recycled content is de-inked and pulped before it can be formed into finished product

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@rt100vt ...it'd be really awkward to see your co-workers doing this. Jussayin'.

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

It’s happening! Root-In rally for toilet paper made from recycled paper @ Grand Central ‘till 8 pm. 🌳🚫🍑 @SeventhGen #SaveaTreeSwapTP

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@misspriss72385 Also, hemp would be a virgin fiber

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@misspriss72385 for clarification- I'm talking about TP made from recycled paper, not previously used TP (that's gross!)

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@ArcadiaAnson nah- you're still using part of a tree! Why not use recycled TP instead?

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@HeartNotDivided I'm one of a kind: often imitated, never duplicated. It take a really long time for trees to grow. Clearcut forests can take more than a century to return to their pre-logging condition, and some never do. You can learn more here: https://t.co/QFVo94CRgr

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

I’m here at Grand Central with @SeventhGen and all of my TreeFFs calling out conventional TP. Come hang, here ‘till 8! #SaveaTreeSwapTP

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@Alex_94706 I'm all for re-planting, but mature trees like me provide homes for animals & are the lungs of the earth. It take a long, long time to grow new trees, and the demand for throwaway tissue products isn't slowing down anytime soon.

[Mike The Tree @MikeTheTree]

@EricPaulDennis According to @NRDC, much of the tissue pulp in the US comes from the boreal forest of Canada. This forest, which acts as a massive storehouse for climate-altering carbon, is vital to avoiding the worst impacts of climate change. You can learn more here: https://t.co/QFVo94CRgr

[Seventh Generation @SeventhGen]

These trees are sick of being turned into conventional TP. We spent the day at Grand Central Terminal with @MiketheTree and hundreds of his tree friends to #RootIn and rally for more people to use recycled TP. 🌳 🙏 ❤️#SaveaTreeSwapTP

[The NYC Tree @thenyctree]

Happy #InternationalForestDay! I spent the day at the Bayard Cutting Arboretum teaching 4th graders the importance of our tress and forests. Hug some trees today, people🌳🌲
