Environmental Friendly Alternative To Deodorant

To sweat or not to sweat. I am worried about the chemicals I put into my body when using a deodorant and the damage to the environment when throwing away the empty can. My idea is a pair of absorbent, water proof pieces of cloth that can fit under ones arm pits that can last up to 18 hours a day. They would keep all the sweet in and the bacteria out. They would be comfortable and washable with the rest of your clothes. They could be made very cheaply and save any indvidual lots of money.

There are less bulky, natural alternatives to use. [see link]

Just use rubbing alcohol. It is the active ingredient in most deodorants anyway. A spash in each pit should keep you unstinky all day. Add your favorite cologne if you want.
