Cutting down trees to make paper is no big deal; those trees were grown for that purpose as a "cash crop" like corn or wheat, and new trees will be planted in their places. On the other hand, have you ever smelled a paper mill? Those things are way out in the boonies because the stench is horrific.

Yes, hand dryers do give off more germs than a paper towel. This is because you have to press the button to activate the hand dryer. And every other person touches the button too which means more germs. Due to the mechanics of hand dryers, they're generally considered to be virtually germ-free. You can push the button with an elbow or wrist instead of your hand, if the dryer isn't activated by motion. Some paper towel dispensers are activated by motion as well, but while these are a step up from the old hand-crank style, the towlettes are still made of organic material and tend to harbor germs from whoever touches them. If the spread of germs truly concerns you, choose the air dryer with confidence (they're more environmentally friendly, too).

How to Get the Most Use Out of a Hand Dryer?
Drying your hands is not something most people think about until the need arises. A stressful situation like a job interview may cause your hands to sweat. In such an instance, your pants become the most obvious hand dryer. Other more normal situations, like after leaving the swimming pool or washing the car, call for using a regular terry cloth towel. But, if you are using a public bathroom, chances are you will be using an electric hand dryer. There are two basic kinds of electric hand dryers. The older version is the hot air dryer. Warm air flows gently over your hands and evaporates the water. The second, more recent type of hand dryer is the jet air dryer. With a jet air dryer, air is forced out at a high rate of speed and the water is dispersed from your hands. Both types work fairly well and you will get your hands dry. Besides drying your hands, there are a number of other possibilities for the electric hand dryer. You had to work late at the office. You’re running behind schedule for a hot date and you have to wash your hair. Well, shampoo your hair in the public restroom at the office and blow dry your hair with the electric hand dryer. It may be a little tricky positioning yourself under the nozzle, but, with a little persistance, you can get your hair dry and look fine for your night on the town. You just spilled your drink on some important papers and now they’re soaking wet. Before too much damage is done, place them under the hand dryer and they will quickly dry out. It may not be good as new, but at least it will still be readable. Besides having some interesting alternate uses, an electric hand dryer is also a good way to help keep the environment a little cleaner. It does not create the waste that paper towels create. Trees do not have to die just so you can dry your hands. Be smart and use an electric hand dryer for all your drying needs.
