Sustainable PF thinks this is an annoying habit of mine but I think its green so I continue to do it. I almost always have a tissue in my pocket and its usually already been used. You see I don’t believe in blowing into a Kleenex just once then discarding it, such a waste of a Kleenex! So I carry it around until I need it again, then I discard it. The exception to this is when I have a bad cold and one Kleenex is never enough! Of course you could also carry a handkerchief which is even more green and saves you money too.
(SPF: I still think this is gross. Use the tissue and toss it – germ control people!).

My husband is a hanky guy, which is definitely greener than using tissues. But I think it’s gross! :-)
