5. and people are clueless
every plastic bag you use every over packaged product requires oil to make it ...polyuerathane and chemicals..the US is a wasteland filled with it..big corporations are NOT held accountable for overpackaging in the US as are the european countries that hold themselves accountable, such as the ones in Germany..
in the meantime, the party is over folks..in the US, for sure. The 5% using 25% of the worlds resources isnt going to last
I have 13 acres of woods but how fast will that be used up? I live in an area where sun is rare..and my house is an old farmhouse thats heated with gas..
so do I convert to wood, do I convert to reliving in an underground house somewhere else where Im safe and can use solar energy? There is no push at all for this phenomenon on a grand scale..people thumb their noses in the US and buy Hummers (every drop of oil is a a drop of a soldiers blood now)
do people downsize? will Hemp EVER be allowed as an alternative? why arent there cornstarch bags ?
amazingly, every time you choose a polyerathane bag in a store you are only contributing to the mess..
it wont last.and no one is talking about it.
