With this being the last post for a week, thought I'd leave you all with a question for discussion. Leave answers in the comment box.
Who makes all the waste and rubbish. The producer or the consumer?
A Kombat Blog! Huffing! and Puffing! trying to blow the house down! Spitting in the face of these badlands! Raging against the dying of the light! Preaching to the converted? Converting the preached to? A challenge to the intellect? or Intellectually challenged? Totally Random! Creative Chaos! Is it art? music? Politics? or Yarbles!?
They only tell us what they want us to know.....An Anti Austerity Demo gathered outside the BBC headquarters in London the other weekend, ...
“Trust, faith, good, bad...non of it matters. All you ever do is what you have to do. Follow your desires, fulfil your needs, escape from pain. That's all there is to it.” - Kevin Brooks.
"Things you use; things you possess, and are possessed by; things you build with - bricks, words. You build houses with them, and towns, and causeways. But the buildings fall, the causeways cannot go all the way. There is an abyss, a gap, a last step to be taken." - Ursula Le Guin.
HIGH STREET
I took a walk and what did I see
Miles and miles of misery.
Down in the town they offer heaven
For all your pounds.
Get back home open up the bag
Then get the feeling you’ve been had.
Just more shit you didn’t need
Consumption feeds their fix for greed.

We the consumers are guilty. Its supply and demand. If we buy eco friendly products we can effect change. I heard that in the UK now you can get products with zero carbon footprints in high street shops. If the manufacturers think they can make money off of it they will change.
Apparently when they introduced similar ideas (reduced bin collections, charge per waste, etc.) in Germany a few years back, customers started leaving unwanted packaging at the point of purchase, in this case: supermarkets. I daresay that, once the supermarkets started shouting, manufacturers soon got the message.
Hurry back Nuzz but have a good one aswell.
Well that's covered that then,EVERYONE IS GUILTY and it's time for a change. Cheers for commenting. But will EVERYONE do their bit? and will EVERYONE pay? That's another post.
