Green - An environmentalist community

The fact that we drill into the earth to pull up what remains of ancient life forms from millions of years ago, and turn them into a material that is destroying, and will destroy the planet, is batshit insane to me. That said, if this report goes anywhere or the industries face any consequences, I will be astounded.

Also this article (NPR).

Here, the local gov't collects all of our plastic/paper recyclables, burns them in a gas-fired incinerator, and then claims that they're turning "waste to energy". There's zero recycling happening locally AFAIK despite all the consumer-focused marketing (prominently-labeled curb-side "recycling bins" for example, not "incinerator bins").
