Never did I ever think I would write the words toilet paper crisis. COVID-19 seems to be bringing out truly surreal turns of phrase. I too ran out of this much coveted limited resource. I did not enjoy my short sojourn into the sustainable alternatives and am deeply grateful for my paper-based stock.
My research and experiments made me aware of wipes.... a relatively new-to-me product that inspired a research rabbit hole. After an hour or so of reading, I decided to do another done-in-a-day weekend video project. The final product is technically-nerdy, videographically-rough and done in good quarantine fun. It made a friend in the wastewater industry giggle and clap.... so from my perspective, the effort was a COMPLETE success. The long-ish ~6 minute video found on YouTube here:
