    All I can think of is that I recycle using the bins the town provided and that's it. Humans could lessen the burden they create on the environment more effectively if they controlled the number of humans.

    The only ones who get that pressure are the First World Civilizations whose birth rates are already below replacement level. 3rd World nations don't get beat on to stop breeding (how do they continue to grow when they've forever been on the verge of starvation???), and they are not supported in efforts to enter the modern era, which would naturally reduce their population increases.

    China already does that with forced abortions. Is that where we want to go? :eek:

    Besides, the Fauci/Gates virus is supposed to reduce the population anyway.

    I ain't green with envy over any of you green as a gooseberry, green-thumbed, greenhorns with greenbacks and greenhouses. I would shell out some long green if I knew where on God's green earth to find some. As sure as God made little green apples, I am going to the green room since I suffer from green apple quickstep and I am green around the gills. I will greenwash my huge pile of green folded hard green since the moon is made out of green cheese. What do I care that spinach eaters have green poop? Now don't go all green-eyed monster on me just because I boast more green stamps in my green book. No one gives an AIDS infected Green Monkey's butt that I am more green than a Martian in a chlorophyll extraction factory so don't go all green on me. Just give me the green light and I will move to Green River, Utah where the river is as green as grass.

    I am neither amazing nor pulling your leg. Just a widow gal that chose to stay single and do it all myself. My body is now telling me all that hard physical work was not among my best decisions.

    I was going to say not much anymore, as current location doesn't have many options. The only recycling is for cans/bottles (soda which I rarely drink, beer which I never drink).

    However, the utility company that provides gas and electricity sends out a "home energy report" a few times a year, I don't recall a single time my energy-use habits haven't been marked as "Great!" Not only do the reports say I use much less energy than "similar homes," but even much less than "energy-efficient homes."

    Well if this young mans organization is for real I may donate to it but I'll give it a little longer tosee if it is legitimate and then for first time give to an environmental group. We've got duped giving before so more careful now.
