Several times! And not necessarily wrong, but missing a perspective that changes my opinion. That’s how we learn and grow. It’s also why you and more people should read books.

I’d love to see some reports of “gun toting Americans” blasting the shit out of ICE agents. The problem is ice agents and gun toting Americans are the same group.

Write, read and analyze literature. Hopefully I’ll be able to do it as a job.

Pharmaceutical company Bayer. Sold HIV infected blood to poorer countries because they didn’t want to lose the investment they had in the blood.

Basically the blood was tested, found out it was HIV contaminated, went to a part of the world where they didn’t test as well. Messed with the results of the tests, and infected thousands of people with it, and eventually AIDS. All because the financial loss they would have taken from destroying the blood was considered too much.

Fudge, formatting fooled me! Since 1-4 were numbers and the 5th didn’t have to be a number but just “Bag”, when I wrote it without a number it didn’t start on the next line, but at the end of “4”. Edited the comment to show it better.

The 4th is a bin, and the last one (5th for clarity) is a big plastic bag.

We sort trash in 4 bins and one bag.

1. Paper
2. Glass and metal
3. Bio, food waste
4. General waste that doesn’t belong in the other bins.
5. Isn’t a bin but a plastic bag for plastic.

Lets say we didn’t have a bag specifically for plastic, that waste would have ended up in 4. Most of 4 is burned. By putting plastic in its own bag it increased the amount of plastic returned to waste management and reduced the amount left out in nature and burned.

We’ve been dealt a shit hand, but we can try making the best out of the situation. Giving up isn’t an option.
