It is also a source of ammunition for disposable diaper advocates who are always looking to find reasons why using cloth diapers is comparably earth unfriendly. Of course cloth diaper users know that they are acting in the best interests of mother earth but in order to balance things out we can always find ways to cut back on our water usage so that cloth diapers are simply not an issue.
