kitty wrote:Hi Suz, Dr Bronners Castile Soap is supposedly eco friendly. You can use it as shampoo, toothwash, bodywash, laundry, etc. http://www.drbronner.com.au/
The 60ml size liquid soap is probably the most convenient size, and you can pick from a variety of scents.
Yes, Ive heard that too (from a wilderness guide that digs trenches annually, so he should know) that wet wipes do not degrade.

Paper breaks down in the ground and poo is very biodegradable, however things that are disposed of in plastic bags have a tendency to become quite toxic rather than breaking down harmlessly. That doesn't mean that I'm advocating laying surface cable or doing your stuff near water sources but perhaps burying it isn't the worst thing to do. My 2c
