What do you think of cloth diapering or using "lampin" for your children? Did you or do you want to do it because it's more economical, it's cost-efficient or because it's eco-friendly? Actually, it's all of the above. I cloth diapered my first-born using the traditional "lampin" back in 2003. It was natural, it was cool to my baby's bottoms, it was practical and little did I know at that time, that I was already helping save the Mother Earth in my own little way.
I realized this even more when Bamboo Dappy, in partnership with WWF and Holy Carabao, invited me with few other fab moms for an intimate tea party to talk about how we could save the environment.

It was a star-struck moment for me to meet one of my blogger icons, Mommy Fluer! Glad to meet new friends as well such as Vim, who shares the same desire to help save our Mother Earth.

Jenny Chua, is the owner Bamboo Dappy. She is a mom of 2 active boys who like most of us used disposable diapers. But after researching realizing that it takes at least 250 years to decompose them, she gave birth to her third baby - which is BAMBOO DAPPY.
Bamboo Dappy's line of diapers uses bamboo fabric because of its inherent properties: softer & more absorbent, hypoallergenic and anti-bacterial. It’s also gives better ventilation to babies’ skin. Most importantly, it’s earth-friendly.
Hindy Tantoco also presented what Holy Carabao is all about. Holy Carabao is a trustworthy source for all organic, healthy and natural goodies. Their products are produced from organic farming which utilizes natural compost and nutrients in place of chemical fertilizers and pesticides to ensure that both the produce and the soil that nourishes it are free from toxins.

SAVING OUR ENVIRONMENT:
The intimate gathering just stressed to us the importance of doing small things to help save and heal our environment. Here are some of the things you could also do to contribute:- Segregate your trash
- Use washable hand towel instead of tissue or paper towels
- Use both sides of the paper; Use scratch papers
- Use eco-bags for your groceries
- Use paper products instead of plastic or styro ones
- Use milk cans as plant pots
- Unplug mobile phone when fully charged
- Turn off lights when not in use

Towards the end of the talk, we were asked to write down our "I will - If you Will" pledges to save our Mother Earth. Here's mine:
"I will use eco-bags for groceries
If you will segregate your trash."
Currently, to help the environment, I'm pleased to say that we use eco-bags when shopping, I use a tumbler for coffee and water instead of disposable cups, I use scratch papers for my kids' drawing activities at home, I use two sides of the paper when printing at work, and I turn off lights and unplug electrical appliances when not in use. These little things I do go a long way and I pass them on to my kids to help create a still live-able, breathable and cleaner environment for them and their own children or grandchildren.
