1) Discarded menstrual products are the fifth most common plastic waste product found in the ocean. We discard 7 Billion annually in the United States alone.

2) 85% of tampons contain Monstanto's 'cancer causing' glyphosate pesticide in it.

3) Since inorganic cotton is an extremely pesticide heavy crop, it rapidly destroys our vital top soils, and pollutes our water systems.

4) Many tampons contain chemicals such as dioxin, chlorine and rayon. These chemicals can leach into our groundwater and air as they sit in the landfill.

5) Inorganic cotton is extremely water intensive, requiring 3 quarts of water to grow just one small cotton bud.
