A million plastic bottles a minute

I saw those plastic eating worms in action, on the TV series Scorpion, last night. I had no idea that they worked that fast. Very impressive!

Plastic-eating worms could help wage war on waste

In lab tests, they discovered that 100 worms can devour 92 milligrams of polyethylene in as little as 12 hours.

I've stopped using toothpaste.. My elec. Toothbrush is effectice anyways.. Just rinse with mouthwash containing flouride.

Some organic toothpaste contains silica instead of microbeads, I don't know how long silica takes to break down in nature but there are a few that do not contain either one in the ingredients...

I sort of oppose these efforts.

The warmunists are trying to deprive us of desperately needed CO2.

I am darkly suspicious they want us to leave fossil fuel in the ground - wasting it for no good reason.

They might even try to stop us from using it.

Is that crazy or what?

I think they just wanted some renewable lights in their sheds..

Tell me Casual. How do you go about to maximise your fossil fuel footprint ?

How do you heat your house ? ,, the mpg of your car ?,, source of electricity ( can you choose ? )

You love CO2 so you gotta release more than the average american ... me thinks :what:

Isn't anybody in favor of making large piles of plastic (garbage dumps) as a source of raw material for future generations?

I don't understand why people are upset about plastic litter. Picking up litter gives chain-gangs something to do.

I bought some regular toothpaste yesterday.
Its Colgate branded and was 80 % more expensive than the other.

It doesnt look, feel or taste as good as the one containing plastic..

Whats next ? Toothpaste with sugar ?

Use my outdoor grill and feed my wood burning fireplace whenever I can (my county is trying to ban using a fireplace).

Remember, where there is smoke, there is flavor.
