There are 11 million diaper-age babies in the US. Each baby uses an average of 65 diapers per week. That results in over 37 BILLION disposables being tossed EACH YEAR in the US alone. With raising awareness of single-use plastic bags, bottles and straws, why are diapers, which currently make up 30% of non-biodegradable waste in American landfills, disregarded?\nIn this Episode of Sustainability Champions, I speak with Liz Turrigiano, Co-Founder and CEO of Esembly, and Champion of Sustainable Diapers. Esembly offers a sustainable diapering system that is built to last to help avoid all those throw-away diapers that end up polluting our environment and aren\u2019t easily recyclable. \nWith Esembly\u2019s service, you\u2019ll only need 48 diapers from birth through potty training. They are still reusable afterwards, meaning you can pass them on to other families or let Esembly buy the diapers from you to either be used again or recycled properly. Their other products include skin care and laundering products as well as a variety of accessories. \n\n\nParents can make a huge positive impact on the planet with this switch and while it may seem a little gross at first, Liz assures us that it\u2019s the natural and healthier way to go. She even compares the clean-up process to just washing the dishes! \n\n\nIf you want to test out the diapers for yourself and your little ones, you can get a 15% discount by using this link: https://esemblybaby.com/discount/Champions15 (https://esemblybaby.com/discount/Champions15) or typing in the code \u201cChampions15\u201d at checkout. \n\n\nIf you enjoyed this episode, please give the Sustainability Champions podcast a 5-star review in the Apple Podcast app and subscribe so you\u2019ll know when the next episode is released!\n\n\nWebsite: https://esemblybaby.com (https://esemblybaby.com)\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/esemblybaby/ (https://www.instagram.com/esemblybaby/)\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/esemblybaby (https://www.facebook.com/esemblybaby)\n\n\n--\nHosted by Daniel Hartz\nSustainability Champions\nhttps://www.sustainabilitychampions.com\nInstagram: @SustainabilityChampions\nFacebook: @SustainabilityChampions\nLinkedIn: @Sustainability Champions
