It's cheaper to pump oil out of the ground than to recycle plastics,

costs of waste disposal and the long term effects on the environment for
future generations. I think that our generation will be viewed as
incredibly wastrel litter louts.


You don't think. You receive other peoples propaganda, regurgitate it,
and call that thinking.

Compared to what my generation recieved - the detritus of a major world
war, coal tips and heavy metal dumps and rivers with no fish in them, we
have achieved miracles in cleaning up the environment.


renewable energy is far more toxic and wasteful of materials than what
we had back in te 70s'

But of course, never let facts get in te way of a devoutly held
religious belief.
