[QUOTE="binky, post: 503806, member: 490"] Totally agree, but I'm not going back to eeking a living from a small holding growing turnips :^O . There is a movement towards reusing and upcycling which is growing - it's what I intend to do as a hobby / retirement income - it's something I enjoy doing. I'll add a few items to your list that annoy me intensely:- disposable wipes, get a dish cloth and a bottle of dettol Primark ****e clothes - not worth buying all glossy magazines promoting fashion/ shiny stuff that your life isn't complete with - perhaps we should ban advertising, or at least severly control it. as above but same ****e on social media. free market captialism, which doesn't give a toss about what/ who it damages to make a quick buck - I have no problems with conducting business, but it has to be reigned in with some basic morals plastic wrappings on everything, eg socket in a plastic bag, screws in another plastic bag in the bag.... gutless goverments who moan that it will hurt business to stop these things so don't lack of foresight from same governments - have you noticed the Japanese ads for Hydrogen lately? Proper bit of foresight that I'm sure will pay off. lazy effing parents that drive kids to local school - go to bed earlier instaed of whatching ****e on Netflix all night and maybe they would have time to walk to school, and get fitter in the process.
