To save trees, rather than concidering cloth diapers, concider early poty training, start at 1yr and you can save more than 1500 diapers per child, - thats a million and a half diapers in just one year for just a thousand kids!! Imagine what that would do globablly to trees and environment!!!
But I guess diaper industry would not want that. (imagine their $$$ lossess)

Way too many.
And the argument about washing the diapers is so so lame. You don't need special washes for cloth, they CAN go into the regular wash that is already running with the extra laundry babies create, if you are doing as far to say that cloth is WORST than disposable you should argue that children are not eco-friendly.

Studies show disposable diapers (which are better for the baby, being more absorbent) are no worse for the environment than cloth diapers, once you factor in the energy use, water and detergent used to launder and dry cloth diapers.

Lots, but there are also issues on water usage for cloth diapers.
