PatchCast: The Great Cloth Diaper Challenge

The called it the “Great Cloth Diaper Change,” a worldwide event aimed to set a world record for the greatest number of cloth diapers changed simultaneously.

Thank You Mama, a business in St. Petersburg, is featured in this PatchCast video from across the bay. Also aiming to help raise awareness for the earth-friendly choice of cloth diapers: Tushie Ties Cloth Diapers, where Crystal Carpenter noted the 400 or so locations participating to help break a diaper-changing record.

The greater aim, she said, is to help parents see “cloth diapers as a reliable option."

Plastic diapers, she noted, take “nearly 500 years to decompose.”
