No body in the entire world uses up as many resources as the US citizen, or is it the Canadian citizen?Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259491144770243688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38477122.post-14885568541971391322009-11-13T09:02:02.488-06:002009-11-13T09:02:02.488-06:00Brigitte, I don't mind people choosing to recy...Brigitte, I don't mind people choosing to recycle. But what I do mind is the moralism building up around it... basically, you're a bad person if you don't recycle, drive a hybrid, or get your veggies at a local farmers market. Environmentalism is the new golden calf of Western culture.Dariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02041978011604967628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38477122.post-28006259946201709172009-11-12T16:02:32.845-06:002009-11-12T16:02:32.845-06:00Hi: just looking in. :) This summer I was in Ger...Hi: just looking in. :) This summer I was in Germany and even with fast food places where we went there were no disposable beverage containers. One day we were at the circus. The Coke and Fanta came in glass bottles, for which you paid a deposit. At the end you returned your bottle and got your deposit back. The same thing happened getting apple juice and sausage at a stand along the Rhine river. You paid a deposit for your glass and then you returned your glass. I thought it made sense.<br /><br />I noticed, too , last time I was in the States, that there were hardly any places to recycle your bottles and cans. We bought some cans of pop at a gas station and there was no separate place to return your containers to even though I asked for it. The only place I saw recycling containers on that trip (2 months ago) were in Yellowstone National Park at Old Faithful.<br /><br />Was I blind, or should some more of this happen. It's good to explore what could be done. No?<br />Yours, Brigitte.Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259491144770243688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38477122.post-5583839676512672362009-11-12T07:47:13.791-06:002009-11-12T07:47:13.791-06:00Read this press release and you'll get a bigge...Read this press release and you'll get a bigger picture of what's going on here.
