NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America’ meteorologist Ginger Zee shared an unexpected video of herself sitting on the toilet seat while holding toilet paper in one hand while staring back into the camera.
The 42-year-old shared a brief clip to her TikTok account recently and revealed a topic that is a big debate in her house.
In the bizarre clip shared by Zee, she told her followers that, “Toilet paper” is a big topic of discussion in her house.

‘GMA’ Ginger Zee spreads awareness about using environment-friendly toilet paper
The TikTok clip started with the bathroom door opening to reveal Zee, sitting on her toilet. "You know what a huge topic of conversation in my house is?" she asked.
"Toilet paper."
Zee mentioned that when her children went to their grandmother's house, they couldn’t help but say, “Wow! The toilet paper in Arizona is so soft.”
The ‘GMA’ star explained, “And that's because I have made us have toilet paper that is good for the planet. Cause that's the thing. We are obsessed with toilet paper in our country.”
She continued, "Per capita, 141 rolls annually, the most by any nation. And if we’re going to do it, there’s one way to do it that’s environmentally friendly and there is one way that’s not."
Zee then explained about the National Resources Defence Council (NRDC), a non-profit that tracks these statistics.
She said, “The NRDC, which is a non-profit that tracks this kind of thing, says that at least a million acres of Canadian boreal forest, so environmentally important, are clear cut, in part, to make this stuff.”
Zee continued, “Now, if you get 100 percent recycled post-consumer waste toilet paper, then you've done your best.”
The ‘GMA’ star said that getting that toilet paper is a little sacrifice that can make a huge difference. "You'll be fine. It still does the job," she ended. She then shared that the best thing to do to save the planet is to buy a bidet.
