I've become an environmentalist in spirit in my old age

   I think back to highschool at the amount of waste produced every day at lunch. Bags and bags full of Styrofoam and plastic forks. All this shit had to go somewhere. And looking at people's overflowing garbage every week. It seems like the world would be covered in trash. Ig a lot of places like in India and Africa are. There are mountains of thrown away clothes. Probably a lot of polyester too.
   
   I believe the American establishment wants global warming, even though democrats pay lip service to it. Both to appease half of the voters and so someone like Speedy could respond to this with a "hurr durr soi boy".
   
   I think it's mostly to thaw the northwest passage and the whole Greenland thing plays into it too. Russia maybe wants the same because they're putting a lot of effort into the arctic.
   
   I produce a lot less trash than everyone else but I burn most paper and cardboard and use the ashes in compost. Everything is wrapped in plastic and Styrofoam and if you're not killing and/or growing everything you eat yourself you're contributing to it and it seems like no point trying.

   I would like to know how much carbon my posts produce.
