wanna 'save' the planet? BAN RECYCLING

a failed effort on all fronts...and the war terminology chosen with care.

It WAS a war... on our way of life. Never once did recycling in any real way help the planet. It was a tool for teaching the sheep and enacting laws. And lining democrap pockets.

the extent of the failure cannot be ignored, even by the founders and former promoters of recycling.

says one:

“People don’t know what’s happening to their trash,” said Andrew Spicer, who teaches corporate social responsibility at the University of South Carolina and sits on his state’s recycling advisory board. “They think they’re saving the world. But the international recycling business sees it as a way of making money. There have been no global regulations – just a long, dirty market that allows some companies to take advantage of a world without rules.”


and this:

The environmental and social ramifications of America’s plastic exports are shocking even to those in the industry. Bob Wenzlau is considered one of the founding fathers of the US curbside recycling system, having helped to launch the program in Palo Alto, California, in 1976.

Curbside recycling “was started with a really good intention; I used to feel so proud,” said Wenzlau. Now, after learning of the effects the nation’s exports are having overseas, he said, “my heart aches, because the system is doing harm”.
