Re: Save the Planet
I don't really pay attention to environmentalism stuff, but I know there's a constant message about water conservation in California.

Re: Save the Planet
Recycling and all of that stuff is not going to save the world when a nation claiming to be under religious power pulls a 9/11 on a tower of harmless people killing more then 200 people at once. Why ? because somebody fired rockets that was countered and only killed two people in the process? It is almost like they want them to attack and start a war.
That from people throwing stones via prayer time????
I honestly feel some people was more happier to live in a world where everybody was afraid of being infected. Rather then watching Miss Universe pageant. That is how people should stay.
Look at Ukraine. We are still in a virus alert world and Russia instead of having a couple of years of peace starts things off by blowing up a whole neighborhood. US burns money it does not have into Ukraine and cancels free breakfast for students. A bunch of foundations and charities appear ( scammers ).
Even during George Floyd people was happier to see people marching in their parks and all over the neighborhood for equality and end to racism.
During the COVID the past 2-3 years the waters in my area got so clean. I mean literally from green to crystal blue at one point. Like wow the people are the result for most of the waste in the water.
...............
Why can't Russia, invest in restoring it's fishing industry in dried out lakes, and inlets?
Why can't Zionist Israel just let people pray to god in whichever way they want to?
Why can't China just forgive the home owners and pull a debt increase as with the US?
Why can't China just leave Hong Kong alone and let them have their language and write whatever they want to?
................
We ask why, why, why, and their are so many simple answers.
Be like "Oh lets recycle" for a piece of property that you can not even enjoy freely.

Re: Save the Planet
I don't believe most of the messaging or that most efforts do anything but waste money to an extent that will be unaffordable to the average person (and they won't realize that until it's too late), but I do want clean water/air and do my part to have a relatively small impact on the environment. I recycle, turn off most electric objects when not in use, don't run water when not necessary, and mostly don't use harsh chemicals. I don't have a bike, but that's certainly a good idea (within reason). There are health benefits to that or walking (that I do a lot but recreationally not to get somewhere), which everybody can use, even if they are already fit.
That is cheaper to do, though, so there is some additional benefit. My electric bill is $1 per day most months. We are charged per bag of trash, but the recycling is unlimited, though of course it jacks up the monthly rate to dispose of that. I recycle as much as I can as a result, which they make easy because it's single stream so you just toss everything in one toter and the disposal facility is designed to sort it.

Re: Save the Planet
You want that? ever thought about going off grid entirely??
Like turning off the water to your home,
Turning the electricity off
Investing in solar,
Investing in blue talapia as a food source, even raising aquarium fishes for food source, like ones that can self-replicate.
Using the bathroom in a bag with a box rather then a toilet.
Letting food run down so you could go outside and get some exercise.
Renting out your living room space to a bunch of people on Public Assistant.
Starting a company using college students. ( like Dr. Venture did ), providing shelter, transportation, and meals.
Sending for immigrant ( legally you can send for any immigrant ) but if they do anything wrong you could be held responsible. I see tons of people in my post-office file for people from other nations all day long.
Bypassing production from China, India, and Mexico and making your own lotions, shampoos, deodorant, and charging a small fee to neighbors so you could rebuy all the products you used to make those things, Thus making stores in your area run out of products. Keeping money out of hands of people.
Catching rain water for showing and cleaning water. Running your washing machine with rain water.
Even filtering urine.
Starting a movement of [random & irrelevant sexism removed ~mod] and putting the idea of having one wife, and not purchasing into stupidity like Onlyfans or virtual dating.
