I find it utterly sickening when I use the ladies room and see a woman using 6 or 7 towels to dry her hands with, when they could have used 1 or 2! Do people have no respect for their environment at all? Sometimes I just wipe on my hands on my shirt/pants becuase I feel I have to pick up the slack for others.

Maybe the people don't realize they are hurting the environment by using paper towels, or they don't care.
People hurt the environment every day, but little things like what you are doing can help.

LOL, I always use a lot of paper towel to dry my hands, I have no other choice. I hate it when my hands are wet and i need them to be completely dry or else i will feel very uncomfortable. I never knew that using too much paper towel was bad for the environment. I don't think most people think of that when they're drying their hands. What difference does it make anyways?? It doesn't matter how much of it you use because all of it is going to be used by people anyways. Even if you only use 1 piece. If it's that bad for the environment then maybe they should stop making paper towel all together

There are other things to worry about that are harmful to the environment than paper towels. I'd worry more about the plastic bottles and fast food containers lying along side the road.

because those people are not paying per paper towel and some people just don't care. they should put the air blowers in the bathroom to stop that. You should not wipe your hands on your shirt but it is more hygenic to use paper towels to open the door and shut off the faucets to prevent sickness and germs.

Would you sleep better at night knowing the don't wash their hands at all? Some women just have large hands naturally, don't make fun of them, they can't help it. It can get very embarrassing when they drag their knuckles on the ground, and painful. So let them wash and be happy they at least do that.

I too on my shirt/pants, just to save the paper unless I'm dressed for formal stuff.

those towels are not very absorbant and some people want to get dry and not wipe their hands on their clothes (yuch)
And keep you hands off other people's slacks please.

Because some of us hate having wet hands. 1 or 2 do not get your hands completely dry. Get over yourself. I bet you drive a SUV.
