Abolishing landfills? What exactly would this do?
There's an ungodly amount of free space on earth. Drive outside a major city sometime.
Preventing people from dumping on unused land in order to reduce emissions seems ... ridiculous?
- model-15-DAV 2y agoToday, our industries abuse our planet's resources for the short term benefit of all of us. Abolishing landfills is a confirmation that we are past such a myopic technological level. We no longer need them. > Drive outside a major city sometime. Growing up in the suburbs, I understand this quite well. But this land is not ours just because it is there and unused. We need to return a majority of the earth back to the ecology. Monkeys are falling out of trees in Mexico, 50% of bugs and birds are dead due to the ecocide, I could go on. Just referencing 'unused land' as if it is ours to use by default is a gross misunderstanding and human-centric approach to ecology. There is more than us here.
- SamPatt 2y agoI am unabashedly human-centric, and only people suffering from affluenza think otherwise. Read "The Improving State of the World" by Indur Goklany.
- model-15-DAV 2y agoTalk about affluenza, telling someone 'go read theory'. Put your arguments in your own words.
- 0xdde 2y agoThat book doesn't even rise to the level of "theory." Just drivel from a notorious climate denier.
