When you use the public bathroom, what do you prefer to use to dry your hands: paper towels or the air hand dryer?
Drying your hands with the air dryer is not very comfortable and it seems like our hands are never 100% dry.
Recently, a study was conducted comparing drying your hands with air versus paper. The air dryer is more earth-friendly that drying your hands with towels, even though it may seem unbelievable. a towel dispenser produces 4.6 tons of CO2 in 5 years, three times more than the air hand dryer.
But the hand dryer also has its drawbacks. It’s not very good at doing what it is designed to do: dry your hands. Most of the time we spend 40 seconds drying our hands and then most of the time they are not even dry after that time. Also, hand dryers move air around and can shoot bacteria from the air onto your hands.
Paper, on the other hand, is less earth-friendly but more efficient. You can dry your hands with a paper towel in 10 seconds and it’s much more hygienic.
Paper or air? We can’t say which is better or worse at this point because both have their goods and bads. What we can say for sure is that if you use paper towels make sure to take only what you need and use sparingly.
