If someone were to load all of the disposable wipes purchased by consumers in North America last year onto 18-wheel semis, the caravan would number 9,000 trucks and stretch for 68 miles. And it would be carrying 83,000 tons of these seemingly ephemeral cloths_which are anything but fleeting.

Largely, they're synthetic in nature (non-woven polymers, sometimes mixed with wood pulp). And they're not readily biodegradable.

About 30 percent of those wipes - $800 million worth_would be meant for home cleaning, according to the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry. (The others: baby and personal care wipes.)
