Today after washing my hands, I proceeded to dry them. But it struck me.
If I use paper, I have to consider the trees that are felled. Deforestation, animal habitats destroyed, greenhouse effect etc comes to mind.
So I went to the dryer. But hey,
If I use the dryer, I have to consider the environmental damage caused by electricity generation. All the mining, combustion that releases gases, death of miners, flooding from dams, etc.
So I stood there for a good two minutes considering my alternatives.
... and I wiped my half dry hands on my shirt and walked out the toilet.

I would think that by the time the 2 minutes you've taken to consider your options have passed, your hands would already be dry.
