Green NON-toxic RV Mattress

LOL, never knew a mattress could cause so much hostility! HAHAHA!
Of course I have a hierarchy of concerns as well, of which a mattress doesn't even come close to the top either.
My current electricity is 100% wind power sourced.
I've been straight razor shaving for over 2 years, haven't cut myself yet.
Naysayers make me laugh. I commend your adept straw man argumentation attempts. Thanks for the good laugh you all :)

Concern about my mattress being toxic gick is so far down my list of concerns, that if I made that list I would be harming the environment by wasting a lot of trees. Maybe you should buy an airbed. They are generally made of recycled plastic and full of air. Of course, they use electricity to run the air pump that keeps those recycled bladders full of dirty ole air, so you are adding a bunch of green house gases if you aren't careful where your electricity comes from. Good luck with the straight razor. I would be more concerned I would slit my throat with that then dying from mattress poisoning.

We all know that there are paid green shills & paid toxic-gick shills out there hocking products. And obviously, in the world we live in, everything comes "at a cost".
Landfills are notorious for leakage all over the country & the world. Let's not forget that there's virtually never a non-toxic barrier between between a toxic mattress and a sleeping body.
I grow much of my own food, never have to buy disposable razors because I straight razor shave with an antique straight razor, & do all sorts of things to consume & spend as little as possible. When I do consume, say on a new non-toxic mattress, I make sure to do a ton of product research, ask in the forums, etc to make sure I'm not getting a greenwashed product. I'm not prosthelytizing any lifestyle or product or trying to start some debate -just doin' some research before I spend a ton of close cuddly time with an object-, ... for me personally, I'd prefer not sleep on toxic gick.

Presumably you're concerned about "off gassing". Airing any new article for a few days will get rid of any lingering, outgassable compounds that may have been trapped by packaging. Once the smell is gone, the VOC's are gone.

If you want to take it a step further, here's a link to an article that may prove helpful.
