Ironic!Andrew Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14685970347404504083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6741946524740642424.post-27053616626808837862009-09-12T00:11:24.677-07:002009-09-12T00:11:24.677-07:00You're quite right, I know.

My wife and I used cloth nappies, and we had five children so we well and truly got used to washing them (she more than I, I have to admit.)<br />And it infuriates and frustrates us to see to volume of 'disposable'<br />stuff that is generated. Happily, there is a lot more recycling nowadays, but still, huge volumes of plastic, usable metal in tins, and other stuff ends up having to be thrown away. We compost all vegetable matter. Something very useful is a compost shredder. They are expensive, though. It would be good if local councils made them available for people to use.Andrew Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14685970347404504083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6741946524740642424.post-50391314837651677832009-09-05T12:44:20.896-07:002009-09-05T12:44:20.896-07:00nice blog.....

Well of course we know the answer to that lies with greed; some people will not be happy until every last drop of oil has been squeezed out of the last barrel before they make changes.<br /><br />I can highly recommend a viewing of 'who killed the electric car' for a similar viewpoint :)<br /><br />Rae xmrs greenhttp://myzerowaste.comnoreply@blogger.com
