we recycle more than we trash at my house lol

I hate the segments if gen Y and Z that have no respect for their history or culture

We have plenty of hippies here

^

I personally can't stand the ones who actively seek to destroy it.

recycling technically doesn't do all that much but its a start

Like, ignore it if you want, but don't go around trying to badmouth it all all the time.

Like it's trendy to have backyard vegetable gardens and shit

People try to buy local and all that

That's always been trendy.

depression era people had to plant gardens just to survive

we should do that but without the depression economy

It's just that it was usually people looking to save a buck or do some gardening rather than yuppie millennials posting on instagram every time they harvest. You usually did it to be humble.

But yeah I'm ashamed of that cuck here from the anti racism whatever the fuck who told that guy he had no culture cuz he's white

@Lagomaster24 I'm going to respectfully disagree. You can get good economies of scale in farming and not everyone is cut out for running a vegetable garden.

Plus, it's really hard to get anythign of any size in a city center.

Well im just saying that during the Great Depression people planted gardens if possible

@Beemann Now *that* doesn't make much sense. Isn't the usual argument that white people control the greater culture and it's somehow innately racist?

and i wouldnt have anything against encouraging gardening

It's there to compliment, not supplement

No the argument is that whites have no culture

/\

Which is a corruption of the argument that there is no white culture, which is actually true

They deny their own history

@Lagomaster24 I can agree with people gardening if that's what you're saying. But I wouldn't say it's something we should be trying to shame people into doing or something. I don't htink it would have that much effect overall is what I'm sayinh.

deny cultural differences between regions of Europe

Oh no i wouldnt try to MAKE people do it, just encourage it

Yeah, this breaks down into "Free Europe" like the UK where you need...licenses for everything

And the "former Soviet Block" where you...nvm.

I guess you could break out the US too. Where you get places like CA where you are free to...not drink from straws.

Why are MA and CA getting rid of all their nuclear?

this is as of 2018

Anyways, the best environmental policies tend to be local. Like the commitment native people in the Great Lakes tend to protect their lakes.

yep

if the government does anything it would be setting a basic standard to go off of

imo

if people want to exceed those standards they are free too

I've been keeping an eye on this one of the reasons I'm gona stay in the navy longer, sadly with these plants shutting down its going to require fossil fuel to pick up the load cause wind and solar infrastructure isn't robust enough yet to make up for it

@pratel Since I'm a Massachusetts citizen, what I can tell you is the nuclear plant that just announced that it will go out of commission is like one of the biggest on the east coast and is a prime target for terrorist attacks. Also because I live fairly close to that one, if it goes off, I'm fucked.

I see.
