Kwasaki Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Well just recycle them, it, whatever. World problems need to be sorted not the affecting results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grollies Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Spent a bit of time in BKK last week. The river was appalling. A lot of plastic pollution and quite a few dead fish floating around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alacrity Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 If manufacturers/providers stopped their insistence on passing their pollutants to me. I wouldn't have a problem. 90% (+) of the total content of my bins comes from such sources. Yet the pushers get a pass. By comparison, If it was a drug problem there would be (deserved) condemnation if the users were mandatorily executed whilst the pushers walked free. Recycling is a joke without an infrastructure to effectively recycle without a massive carbon footprint. I hate to see the damage plastic pollution causes to the environment and innocent wildlife. Yet I'm of an age that I remember when plastics were promoted to 'save the trees'. When stopping third world countries trying to make them extinct would have been a much better idea. Presently I do what I can, but that's SFA in the overall scheme of things. But it's done in a pragmatic way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
