Doesn't everyone in Berkeley have those Japanese auto spritz your hole with water robot toilets? http://videos.howstuffworks.com/reuters/1073-high-tech-japanese-toilets-from-toto-video.htm

http://youtube.com/watch?v=sZCym0DB7hA I just found this video on youtube. its about the kleercut campaign. Apparently its nation wide, UC Berkeley isn't the first to cut Kimberly-Clark. And if you've checked out the information on their website Kimberly-Clark doesn't use ANY recycled material in their products. I hope the event is successful because KC unsustainable practices are ridiculous. "If not now when? If not me who?"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fxr6TWAl1Bw&feature=related Yea I looked into this new Kimberly-Clark attempt to promote their 100% non-recycled tissue brands and found this ridiculous youtube video... I've been following Greenpeace's work to protect ancient forests for a while and it seems very legit, I've also heard several campuses around the country have spoken out against Kimberly-Clark and I think it's pretty sweet that students are voicing their disgust w/the company's unsustainable policies.

No way, the only things holding my boxers together are the stubborn understains.

This site is just posting old comments now. What I said was, the link above contains no facts, no quotes, no supporting evidence, no maps, no photos. I believe it!

Let me see, that site had no supporting evidence, no quotes, no graphs, no maps, no statistics. I believe it!

And after the protest the kids will go home and wipe their bums with Kimberly-Clark products for the next sixty years, never once registering their own hypocracy and naivety. Still it's just kids, at least they'll grow up and get jobs and pay taxes, no wait it's Berkley.

interesting read about the issue here: http://kleercut.net/en/node/26 if anyone finds a site to debunk this story, please post it. i try not to take anyone's word for anything these days. forestry management is a complicated issue.
