Toilet paper, a product used daily by millions around the world, may soon face an uncertain future as environmental and health concerns mount. Once seen as an unshakable staple of modern hygiene, experts and activists are now questioning its sustainability. This shift has sparked conversations about whether we’re nearing the end of the toilet paper roll as we know it.

However, its production relies heavily on natural resources, particularly wood pulp, which is extracted through extensive logging.
