I’ve totally given up on the whole “we must do more to protect the environment”. Don’t get me wrong, I still recycle, reuse, but going the extra mile to make small changes to my life, whilst countries, industrial corporations continue to churn out waste without a moment though, and allowed to get away with it is completely beyond me.
Take the Super Bowl in Vegas last month. I saw an animation of all the “rich and famous” flying out of vegas after the end of the game and the amount of flights that departed to places with the western states was a disgrace. Hundreds of flights flying from vegas to LA (350 miles) and I guarantee 80% of them could have been not required of people shared a flight.
Yet here we are made to drink through a cardboard straw to “protect the environment”
