I'm just mentioning it because I think that toilet paper as a single use item billions of people use at least daily is a much bigger issue of wasting trees than books - which last for decades and are very useful

There are modern toilets with integrated automated bidets and dryers. But they are unfortunately a bit expensive.

Oh, nah I wasn't saying they were a waste of life or something, I was just acknowledging it sounded strange in my head to say something never dies that is already dead.

Trees are renewable though, so they'll hopefully always be more. The dryer thing sounds nice for a bidet.
