Composting
I got notice that my building has ordered a 'green bin' for composting (as offered by the city of San Francisco.) So I've started filling up some BioBags with compostables. Then I looked in the trash. Most of it is various plastic stuff. ZipLock bags, plastic film, plastic packaging, etc. Now the question becomes: Why is recycling various plastic so hard? I'm sure that's a loaded question, but does it need to be?
I also found that there is a company developing a zip closed biodegradable bag. We live in exciting times.
Ladies and gentlemen: Recycling, composting, 'environmentalism' is not about saving the earth. The earth is fine. It's now about making sure that humans can inhabit the earth in the future. And every little bit helps.
