I officially hate the Environment!

The other day a glass bottle of soy sauce fell out of my cupboard leaving broken glass and nasty brown liquid all over the floor. Since a few days ago I believed in doing my part for the environment, I had no paper towels. I believed in being a good steward and used dish towels that I could use and re-use and re-use. Dish towels do not clean up broken glass. If I had paper towels I could just sop up the mess and dispose, but no I had to clean the mess up with a dish towel, shake the contents into a bag, and then try and rinse the dish towel to be used again. This left tiny little gashes on my hands. I finally ended up using a bunch of dish towels as to avoid the cuts and then throwing them away. Take that earth, how long does a glass and soy sauce soaked towel take to decompose? Probably a bit longer than it will take for the cuts to heal on my hands--oops. But I would do it again.
