There is so much more litter everywhere than when I was a kid.

I know a main issue is the lack of garbage cans (seriously wtf city, hire maintenance staff and put out garbage cans its not that hard).

But! even in places where there are *tons* of garbage cans (local park), people still litter.

What happened to the anti-littering PSAs? The general "clean up after yourself" mentality? WTF is happening?

Seeing Green

Sir, This morning I paid five pence for a bio-degradable carrier bag from our local food store. Ordinary plastic carrier bags were as usual given away free.

In view of the current thinking, that the “polluter should pay,” surely we should give away “environmentally friendly” bags such as these, and pay for plastic carriers, or is this just another example of the big stores taking advantage of the green consumer?

Yours sincerely,

JENNIFER SAUNDERS.

This letter to the editor was written almost 30 years ago, and the situation still isn’t fixed entirely. Actually, Saunders brings up an excellent point: yes, we now have to pay for plastic bags in many states and countries, but biodegradable bags and reusable bags still cost money. Not a lot of money, but still. Why not create free biodegradable bags? Sure, paying for reusable bags still makes sense on some level, but biodegradable bags? Why not make them free?

In honor of Earth Day.

I’m pretty sure everyone who follows me on tumblr knows by now that i’m very pro-environment and anti-human. That i view humanity as a planet destroying parasite that must be stopped. Which is why i support human extinction or simply another plague that wipes out all or most of humanity. A virus that is only harmful/dangerous to humans would work too. I don’t think my love of the environment/nature would ever push me to be a eco-terrorist though , which might also explain why i have a love for comic book or graphic novel characters who are eco-terrorist and very pro-environment and anti-human ( like poison ivy ) . I recently stumbled upon this organization? called Vhemt and i do support some of their views but am kinda disappointed they are not selling any organic t-shirts so i can share it out in the open. Humans have vastly overpopulated the planet and the earth defiled by humanity. The infection/parasite and pest known as humans needs to be eradicated.  Humans are a blight that needs to be eradicated for the sake of the planet.

If you don't think that global climate change (or any environmental problem that has to do with the ONLY KNOWN PLANET SO FAR that can support LIFE(US)) should be our NUMBER ONE PRIORITY out of all the problems that currently exist. YOU ARE WRONG.
