This practice has just been outlawed in Australia, which is great news. I’d willingly pay more for recycling to be done here.

- gumby 7y agoI believe the post your were responding too just used recycling as an example. A different example: Australia could have a tech industry that didn't pollute (assuming the power weren't coming from brown coal :-( ). But all the hardware designed in AUS could be built in a highly polluting way in China. That would be essentially exporting the pollution. I don't know the fix, just pointing out the topic at hand. Australia's record on pollution is horrific, especially when you consider how little of our continent is actually habitable.
