Yes, you’re quite right.

When the below was bought to my attention, I was mortified! but then again, not really…where do people think all of this shit goes? into thin air?

https://eu.usatoday.com/story/tech/science/2018/03/22/great-pacific-garbage-patch-grows/446405002/

The world’s largest collection of ocean garbage is growing. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a collection of plastic, floating trash halfway between Hawaii and California, has grown to more than 600,000 square miles, a study found. That’s twice the size of Texas

Back home people are also lazy Sherry Kappel.

That being said? before leaving I was lucky enough to be in a house with like-minded people who taught me a lot about how to minimise waste and be more conscious.

Here in the UK? I’m appalled at my tiny apartments waste every day :( back home it was compost and freshly grown veggies, swap groups for items you didn’t need. Lemon trees that were shared, clippings of plants shared.

I cannot wait to start these little things again. I’m absolutely guilty here of late :(

Yes, they’re small changes, but necessary ones.

As for the water bottles, EUGH such a bloody waste!

Rant over!
