That’s a tough pickle. Have you ever heard of towels? Or rags? Rags you can even make yourself out of old shirts and what not. Then you could be a Sustainable King ♻️
I've been doing this almost my whole life and I feel not enough people know about it. One paper towel soaks through almost instantly, but then grabbing three is just a total waste. Instead, lightly tug without tearing that first sheet, then wave your hand again for a double-long continuous sheet. It's the perfect amount, and this technique improves my quality of life almost every day.
