SINGLE-USE MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS, BABY NAPPIES & WET WIPES: Investigating the impact of these single-use items across Europe
Single-use menstrual products, baby nappies and wet wipes can cause serious health and environmental problems during their production use and disposal. These products are mainly made of plastic and may contain toxic chemicals that negatively impact the health of people. Zero Waste Europe presents a new study which aims to analyse the impacts of such products as well as discuss measures to prevent or minimise them by switching to reusable alternatives.
