A landfill is not a composting facility...

For the past week now I've been thinking a lot about diapers. I can remember when my brothers were in diapers, cloth diapers. My mother would put the shitty ones in the toilet to soak, and I had the pleasure of rinsing them out before putting them in the wash. I'm not sure if putting the dirty cloth in the toilet was typical, but that's what I remember of cloth diapers. Thankfully there have been advances in the diaper industry since the 1980-somethings.

Now onto some of my recent research:

Sweet.

**Disposable, but biodegradable! However, I would have to compost them in my own yard because no diaper can biodegrade and break down in an airtight landfill. Just saying. Diaper garden?

The Fuzzi Bunz Diaper:

Oh, and where am I supposed to put these diapers? How should I transport them??
