I first met Sheryl Crow in 1992 when she was touring with former Eagles' drummer, Don Henley. She along with my friend Lynn Mabry were the backup vocalists. We sat backstage at the Blossom Music Center and ate dinner. I remember Crow being small and sweet, obviously very charismatic. We talked about her demos and whether she was going to do a solo album, which I found out Lynn Mabry had already lent vocals to. By the next year, she had a hit record with, "All I Wanna Do". I never imagined that she would become a pop superstar. Nor could I imagine that she would date Lance Armstrong or battle cancer. Yesterday, Crow completed her collegiate tour and landed on talk shows where she offered a solution to the global warming problem. After much thought, Crow suggests that we save the environment by only wiping our butt with one sheet of toilet tissue.
"It's great to go out and play music, and I love that, too. And it's also nice to make money. But this is not that," Crow said Sunday in an interview. "This is a whole bunch of people dedicating their time, their lives, working for free, for a mission. And it is the most important mission."
Songstress Sheryl Crow is calling for a limit on toilet paper.
The green minded singer Crow has said a ban on using too much toilet paper should be considered to help the environment, according to an interview with the BBC.
In an unheard of celebrity tutorial on mindful Earth friendly tips, Crow suggests using "only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where two to three could be required".
Crow completed the tour while traveling on a biodiesel-powered bus. She teamed up with environmental activist Laurie David for the shows. David produced the Al Gore Academy Award-winning, "An Inconvenient Truth". She is the the wife of writer-comedian, Larry David.

To Lance Armstrong, a testicular cancer survivor, she was obnoxious on a personal level, breaking his heart and busting his chops till he ended up hating the player and the game- He took his ball and went home.
To "You Americans", as the first Web 2.0 Psy-Cho Killer calls us, Sheryl Crow is obnoxious on an ultra granola global scale; saving the world, one square at a time. resorting to toilet paper origami. She thinks that Americans use too many sheets to wipe, and wants us to "Say No to Crack".
I think she's lost her freaking mind on this one. If she thinks I'm using one square, she's gonna have to come in here and wipe me herself.
