But if you're in a position to donate to them, you still should. Their funding has been cut.

Pete Seeger is a good human.

I have a 2017 Chevy Volt plug-in hybrid; meaning it has an electric engine and a small gas engine. When I bought it in 2019 it got 60 miles of electric. Now it gets about 30. You can't buy a new PHEV that has more than 35 miles of electric. Electric car batteries are the only technology that gets worse with science. But it sure does encourage buying more cars. Thanks Corporation.

This is the one example of a corporation doing something that technically benefits people in addition to their shareholders and customers.

We should feed the Kardashians to the poor...

Mostly BS. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/kim-kardashian-paris-cheesecake/ Anyway, the two things aren't mutually exclusive, curbing on single-use plastics reduces pollution independently on what other people do. This is just whataboutism to justify pushing back against sensible environmental initiatives because "muh freedumb!!"

Enough with the private jets. If private jets were banned tomorrow, it would have almost no impact on climate health. On average private jets produce 2 tons of Co2 per hour of flight time. U.S private jets registered 5.4 million hours of flight time in 2023, putting the emission total for ALL U.S based private jets at 10.8 million tons. In the same year, the united states had an overall emission total of 4.8 BILLION metric tons. Private jets accounted for 0.0025% of emissions. While passenger cars in the U.S were responsible for 1.858 billion metric tons of Co2. Yes, private jets are bad on a comparative basis, but the overall impact is negligible when you're comparing 15,000 aircraft against the 1.5 billion passenger cars worldwide. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1118464/transportation-co2-emissions-in-the-us-energy-consumption/ https://privatejetcardcomparisons.com/2024/03/25/2023-private-jet-flight-hours-dip-3-7-2007-to-2023-by-year-recap/

Nationalize all private jets, they should be for emergencies only ie need to get a heart transplant to a patient, need to get life saving supplies/ d***s to the people that will die without them. The wealthy can always fly first class so why do we as a society allow the private jets industry to exist!

Who? I know who, but it would annoy them.

Off course BP needs to post something about the Katrashians

This is called socialism. "If you give the most help to those who need the most help, you improve the situation for everyone."

When you need a truck, but don't have 'inadequate downstairs issues'.

Go back to a simple cotton sheet to wrap the body. I mean...does it really matter what you're buried in? Dig a hole, chuck me in and backfill it. Go to the pub and have a whiskey for me. Job done.

Slay!!!

Brilliant!

What I think put into words for me!! Fantastic!

This is awesome, I've got to try this.

There will come a point where the impoverished will no longer have money to buy from the rich, and the whole thing will just collapse. I'd hope that the issues will get solved before it comes to that, but looking at the world's current state...

Vaping is stupid and this is super stupid. This must be a bad joke or a nightmare.

"Should This Be Implemented Throughout The World?" You mean offering paying jobs to homeless people to help them get back on their feet? I realize picking up garbage isn't a dream job for most, but it's a start to get them food, a place to stay and be able to look at other jobs that won't see them as "homeless" but as actual "potential employees"

Cute is better

You can also use it as a regular candle should you ever need one.

Our city has a paint place like that. Usually enough for a landlord to paint a house purple with green trim. and another one yellow with orange trim.

How is this something "wrong with the world"? That's a good idea.

I've got.....$1?

We had a couple of decades to fix the crisis in the 70's. (Thanks Reagan /s) A decade or so to mitigate the crisis in the 90's or not hit any tipping points. Now we have a 'decade' to keep the crisis from becoming 'too bad'

bless the people who spent their time cleaning it up

Coca Cola tastes nicer from a glass bottle than from a plastic one.

Quite normal in Europe

There are valid reasons for dumpster diving. But as a society, we are trained to think it's 'gross'. Just thoroughly wash after. 🤷‍♂️

Good on her 😊

Ocean Cleanup has found the fishing industry is way more at fault than plastic bottles.

Okay now this infuriates me.

They are hanging on because new cars expect you to have an I.T. degree to operate them and sell subscriptions for every ridiculous add on.

BuT bUt! iT nEeDs to BE AESTHETIC/s

I absolutely hate wasting food.

Aside from being even more wasteful than the already egregious disposable vape, this thing is clearly aimed at children (and others whose brain hasn't developed past a certain point) and is designed to try to make vaping even more addictive. Vaping products should be legally required to be boring and uncool. They're already d***s. We don't need to make them more exciting.

Not anymore. Now it's like this every week for whatever sale they're having that week.

"But... In the meantime, in between time, ain't we got fun?..."

The natural lifespan of chickens is about 7 years, but some chickens have been known to live up to 15 years. On production farms, chickens are killed when their productivity declines, i.e. at about 1.5 years of age.

I did this with beer growlers for a while. It's a fun, sustainable way to get craft beer, but then most places would not fill a growler if it wasn't their own, URG!!

Nice, we went from seeing cig buts everywhere to vapes everywhere.

No thanks, I don't want to share a city bus with 23 cars.

In plastic bags though - shame! (I believe I'm legally obliged to put /s at the end of the comment) /s

In some cases wouldn't that trap the ethylene making it go bad faster.
