    recycling is a scam

    I do agree with recycling in principle and I do my bit regarding aluminium, glass and cardboard but everything else is just not recycled by industry or gov.

    my bit for the environment is to consume less, a lot lot less,

    I’m also trying to make choices that result in less waste, eg, a cardboard box is better than a plastic bottle

      This is the most important bit of anything for the environment. We’re so primed by our society to consume, to want more. It’s almost rebellious to go against it and deliberately consume less.

        So much of what people buy they don’t even regard as consumption

        like redoing a perfectly good kitchen every few years just because of fashion
