People were blinded by their longevity and energy efficiency and this was encouraged by our government.

most of teh processes of been green actually cause more polution than what the product claims to save

recycling plastic isnt envioromentally friendly either and the process causes more pollution than making fresh plastics

thousands of tons of recycled materials are been simply thrown directly into landfill negating all teh efforts made by people and the running of 2 seperate collections pointless

people have either been brainwashed or bullied into been supposedly green when infact most efforts are causing just as much if not more damage to the enviroment

also green = extra cost which we cover in higher tax


funny thing is toys still come with twice as much packaging than needed and companies are still using teh same old methods for packaging yet the common folk have to do their bit or face huge fines for non compliance
