When busy we are, conservatively, given 20 disposable nappies a
day to "get rid of".
Throw-away nappies contain some substances, including human waste,
that rot away quickly. But the artificial plastic and chemical
components can take up to 500 years to fully decompose.
Burning them can lead to emissions of cancer-causing dioxins to the
atmosphere and leaves behind a green gel which can take up to 300
years to fully decompose.
Starting IMMEDIATELY we are encouraging the use of BIODEGRADABLE
NAPPIES ONLY
Our wonderful worms will munch their way though all the
biodegradable nappies we throw at them turning waste into super
fertilizer in just 8 weeks!
(brilliantly designed & constructed by Richard & Gang)
The only Biodegradable Nappy available in Singapore is the Moltex
Oko, sold by Bonnie Cosse through her website, just click
here to
order on line, or available at Sea Gypsy Village at our cost price

Green Note: As of our 2012 season anyone wishing to use non
biodegradable nappies will be asked to bring their own plastic bags
to take any soiled nappies back to the mainland with them for
disposal.
