Plastic fanaticism
Apr. 4th, 2005 01:35 pmI have throwing away plastic carrier bags. Not enough to re-use them, generally, as huge piles of bags will testify, but enough to have a morbid fear of binning them. As, again, huge piles of bags will testify.
My little foible is starting to extend to plastics in general. There is so much of the damn stuff around - every little thing has some plastic spandangle associated with it. All of which go in the bin - plastic forks, spent biros, bottle caps.
Re-cycling facilities here are worse than useless. The stuff'll be her for thousands of years :(
On the bright side, when we flood the world with the global warming stemming from the production of all these plastics, we'll have a nice raft of floaty plastic crap to sail around on.
In other news, I went out and had iced coffee at lunchtime. The sun is shining.
But yes, it was in a plastic container :/
