Organic Body Lotion Will Make Your Skin Look Healthy, Smooth, and Vibrant

Small choices at home add up, and toilet paper is one of the easiest swaps to make without changing your routine. Bamboo toilet paper is made from a fast-growing plant that regenerates from its roots, easing pressure on forests and supporting steadier habitats. Because bamboo can be grown with fewer pesticides and fertilisers, it can also mean less chemical runoff into rivers and soil. Many bamboo options use less water in production, break down efficiently after flushing, and come in plastic-free or recyclable packaging all wins for low-waste living. Some brands even offer subscription deliveries that cut last-minute shopping trips and extra packaging. In this Friendly Turtle EcoBlog guide, we unpack seven practical reasons bamboo rolls can be kinder to the planet, from carbon-conscious cultivation to everyday convenience, so you can choose comfort, durability, and a lighter footprint in one simple household staple.

International travel is booming again, but many destinations are pushing back against overcrowding and the pressure mass tourism puts on local life. Choosing small group travel is one of the simplest ways to explore responsibly without losing the magic. With fewer people, trips feel more personal, guides can adapt to the pace, and you’re less likely to funnel money into the same commission heavy “tourist traps”. Smaller groups also reduce strain on water, energy, and fragile habitats, while making it easier to support local cafés, family-run stays, and community led experiences. At Friendly Turtle EcoBlog, we’re all about travel that leaves a lighter footprint: stay longer in one place, tread gently, and help protect the culture and nature that made you want to visit in the first place.

On Friendly Turtle EcoBlog, we share practical, low-tox tips that protect your space and the planet so your home smells lovely without compromising your health. Learn to spot vague ‘fragrance’ on labels (often a catch-all for undisclosed chemicals), swap aerosols for refillable sprays, and wipe surfaces with a damp cloth to cut soot.Small changes add up to cleaner air and calmer breathing all year round at home.
