And we're not talking about the size of the universe, the other great debate:

Over the last 20 years a great debate has raged over the issue of which diaper system has the least impact on the environment. Cloth or disposable. While it seems obvious that 18-20 billion disposables made with plastic sitting in landfill creates by far the most impact, in fact, the results of the studies comparing diapers you wash and reuse, and ones you throw away, vary depending on the study and who funded it. Into the fray comes a third player. gDiapers. The flushable option. Minimal washing and no garbage.

Yaty and I were planning on doing the proper green thing and using cloth, low and behold there is another option, and according to the website's propaganda, it's better than cloth! Of course that's if you choose your cloth option poorly. I've ordered the starter kit and 160 more inserts, so we should have enough experience by the time we get to medium sized diapers to see if we'll switch to cloth at that point, or continue with flushables.
