    It seems like a lot of toxicity warnings are based on an industrial scale so I’m curious about the impact of using a couple printed boxes, versus the impact of the next laziest option: synthetic landscaping “fabric” or that thick black plastic material.

      There’s another option though. Any paint store/ department sells rolls of plain brown paper for use as a dropcloth. That’s what I use instead of cardboard. It’s not particularly expensive, and it’s as easy to roll out as landscaping fabric.
