samples tell us this, the ONLY real global warming data and not the corrupted bogus math models...and its not that we do not wish to conserve etc., but let us stop the money grab lies e.g. CARBON TAX
Climate is always changing. How do I know? Because we are no longer in the Big Ice Age! It’s pretty much a - DUH - conclusion. The period of [approximately] 950 a.d. to 1300 a.d. was known as the Medieval Warming period. It was immediately followed by The Little Ice Age [approximately 1300-1850]. That’s true climate change. The planet Earth has been around 4.6 billion years. During 80% of that time, Earth has been uninhabitable. The earth’s history includes one-billion years where the atmosphere was so toxic, there was literally no life on earth. There have been 5 extinctions during the life of Planet Earth. Carbon was never the reason for extinctions or any other cataclysmic event. There was more carbon dioxide on Earth 100 million years ago than today and since then, the amount of carbon dioxide has been diminishing. The average temperature in England has not changed for 20+ years. Climate Change due to carbon is a gigantic hoax. The goal is to give more to the rich, take away personal freedoms, and to depopulate. Carbon is only .004% of the Earth's greenhouse gases. That is not man-made Carbon, but ALL carbon. If that number gets to .002%, plant life starts dying. Why is it COLDER as we travel in space towards the sun? A: No greenhouse gases, like CO2, to hold in the Sun's heat. I could go on all day. Global Warming/Climate Change is a gigantic hoax - just like so many - like the Energy Crisis in the 1970's only to see the USA the leading exporter of petroleum in the 2010's. SMH. Lie after lie after lie.
"Data from 1896–1996 suggests the global average height for males increased from 63.78 to 67.32 inches. During this century, Iranian males may have seen the biggest change in height, gaining nearly 6.5 inches." -Wikipedia.
(That's right, ladies. A 5'8 tall man is above average).
Unfortunately, girth has also increased due to poor nutrition thanks to government-food industry corruption & the upside down institutionalized Food Pyramid that now pushes sugar loaded & glyphosphate coated boxed breakfast cereal is a nutritious staple. Rising C02 levels could be leveraged to grow more nutritious crops, but instead, government policies are doing the opposite.
If you haven't figured it out yet, worthless C02 gas was plucked out of thin air, monetized and turned into a commodity like true natural resources of actual value, such as gold & timber. Why? Because the source of all wealth is natural resources. And there were not enough real ones to go around. So they just made one and forced it up on us. That Bill Gates plans on mowing down a forest only to bury the logs for carbon credit proves how corrupt the C02 scam truly is. Sunlight and wind have been monetized with solar cells & wind mills that consume more energy from oil to manufacture than they'll ever produce in order to create new industries enrich themselves & prop up our fiat currency. But they are all wasteful and this will come back to bite us in the ass.
Corruption and the Dunning-Kruger effect has always negatively affected government policies and dictates. Now the government's Idiocracy is self perpetuating with DEI, making it even more important for citizens to pay closer attention to what their governments are up to and of capable to personally get involved in some way to counter & right government wrongs.
because glass weighs more than plastic? it can be reused? there is an incentive to make it look as though using plastic has merit...no! Look where it ends up! Directly back into our foodchain....creatures, environment...then also pollutes...gets so small it is impossible to eliminate from getting into human beings and creates everywhere on eA
Isn't it a good thing to reuse and repurpose? My county has a recycle bin for the residents, which is picked up by the disposal company and taken to a plant to separate the resources for reuse.
Years ago I used to save aluminum cans and take them to a place where they paid per pound for them. Better than putting them in a landfill.
Now I only recycle cardboard boxes and other paper packaging. They are used to make more cardboard boxes at paper plants.
And certainly, no garbage or waste should be dumped into the oceans. That's a bad practice and harmful.
But of course, the green activists are just crazy virtue signalers, who think that mankind is the problem, and climate change is a threat. Nonsense.
Tear down ALL those evil disgusting worthless wind turbines.
The best and most convenient way to recycle is to burn everything to a cinder. Collect the remaining metal for scrap and melt it down and reuse it. The heat can generate electricity and scrubbers can be used on the stack to remove particulates. The CO2 feeds the plants and I have a lot of trees that were incinerated in a DEW fire in Northern Cal that would really like more CO2. Iceland has been doing this with their refuse for years.
It is always about the money and getting people to buy into the propaganda. Recycling of anything never made any sense. There was no science to support continuous recycling of the same item so all that could happen is to extend the use out one more time and at greater expense and then into to landfill. Reuse made the most sense and people did that until they made items that were not reusable. The same happens to glass items. There is little to no use for crushed up glass. What’s worse, we pay third world countries to take our recycling trash to ship it across oceans where it would ostensibly be recycled but since they don’t have the means, it goes into poorly controlled land fills which ends up in rivers and then to the oceans.
It would make more sense to use all this waste to generate electricity through modern incinerator methods.
The following is a copy and paste of an article from the CBC of all places regarding a documentary on this topic.
Recycling was a lie — a big lie — to sell more plastic, industry experts say
Less than 10 per cent of the plastics we’ve used have been recycled. A new documentary reveals why
CBC Docs · Posted: Sep 23, 2020 11:11 AM MDT | Last Updated: October 8, 2020
Although our landfills and oceans are full of it, we are as dependent as ever on plastic. And since COVID-19, it's gotten worse.
Last year, Canada announced it was working on a ban of single-use plastics, which was initally sidelined by the pandemic. Recently, the government announced that many single-use plastics will be banned by the end of 2021. At the same time, CBC News reports our single-use plastic use increased by 250 to 300 per cent as people tossed their personal protective equipment and stopped using reusable bags and containers over fears they would spread the virus.
What makes our lives convenient is also burying us. Plastic Wars, presented by The Passionate Eye, looks at the mounting crisis and how the industry has spent millions promoting recycling — just to sell more plastic.
Less than 10% of the plastics we've used have been recycled
Although activists sounded the alarm about plastic waste in the 1970s, the documentary claims from 1990 to 2010, plastic production more than doubled. We've been sorting our trash for decades, believing it would be recycled. But the truth is the vast majority of the plastic we use won't be. Over the last seven decades, less than 10 per cent of plastic waste has been recycled.
That's because, says David Allaway, from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, the conversation has been almost exclusively about recycling and not reducing and reusing.
Recycling logo was used as a green marketing tool, says industry expert
In the '80s, the industry was at the centre of an environmental backlash. Fearing an outright ban on plastics, manufacturers looked for ways to get ahead of the problem. They looked at recycling as a way to improve the image of their product and started labeling plastics with the now ubiquitous chasing-arrows symbol with a number inside.
According to Ronald Liesemer, an industry veteran who was tasked with overseeing the new initiative, "Making recycling work was a way to keep their products in the marketplace."
Most consumers might have assumed the symbol meant the product was recyclable. But according to experts in the film, there was no economically viable way to recycle most plastics, and they have ultimately ended up in a landfill. This included plastic films, bags and the wrapping around packaged goods, as well as containers like margarine tubs.
"Our own customers … they would flat out say, 'It says it's recyclable right on it,'" says Coy Smith, former board member of the National Recycling Coalition. "And I'd be like, 'I can tell you, I can't give this away. There's no one that would even take it if I paid them to take it.'" He believes manufacturers used the symbol as a green marketing tool.
"If the public thinks that recycling is working, then they're not going to be as concerned about the environment," says Larry Thomas, another top industry official interviewed in Plastic Wars.
glass is the safest and best container...many beer and alcoholic beverages are back in aluminum cans which leach into whatever is in it...
Many years ago, a show on the CBC in Canada called "Marketplace" did an investigation into the recycling bins in restaurants and on the streets, where they have separate holes for paper, plastic, etc., but when you remove that it all goes into the same bin...it's a scam.
A number of yrs ago, in British Columbia, they made everyone get pink recycle bins to put vegetable and fruit etc waste in...the rat population plus the bins being wrecked by raccoons and black bears pretty much put a stop to it.
We have to bring our own shopping bags but it's ok that just about everything in the grocery stores are encased in plastic wrap, in plastic containers, and they still have those plastic bags by the fruit and veg...it makes no sense...plastic straws were supposed to be banned but all the hospitals use them...
There was a time in Toronto and it may well be the same now whereby residents were so careful to put out recycle to the curb that the Toronto recycle facility couldn't handle it all, so what they couldn't process went to fill up old unused mines or trucked down the highway to Detroit land fill.
Recycling is a nice effort... taking time and ressources. Not so green after all? Some long time ago someone could make money owning a recycling business, but it's not lucrative anymore. one day my husband, retired, was sitting outside, and noticed that the same garbage truck was taking along the recycling bins/bags... hu ho.
Anything that is fueled by religious zealotry, like this, is suspect, immediately. Another big tell is the cities' eagerness to fine violators...some places actually have the trucks fitted with x-ray devices so they can fine the homeowner...nice source of revenue.

Excellent post, Champ.
We are the carbon they want to eliminate.
C02 increases plant size and crop yield.

Let's go back to milk in glass bottles, soda in glass bottles. Pay a deposit, return them for your refund.
Glass is SO MUCH better and healthier than plastic. Why did they stop and go to plastic?
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Certainly not about health
