They don't dump it in the water. They dump it in the forests. In WA specifically, "sewage" is processed for as many contaminants as possible. Then, they put it in trucks and drive into the Cascades and spray it in the forests

Definitely, but even if you had all the time and resources in the world, you'll never get things perfect. So if you operate off that assumption, then maybe it forces you to consider that some people will be left behind by the thing you

Watch the film I, Daniel Blake , because my comment is kind of dependent on that. The movie does such a good job portraying how change is inevitable. From an American pov, I've always admired how the UK has stuff like Gov.uk, a real a

Last year's Palme dOr at Cannes was the British film I, Daniel Blake . It was a fantastic gut punch for how even well-intentioned technology is leaving behind parts of society. My partner and I had a very heated 2 hour discussion afte

I would like to know too, if it really is some odd phenomena that everyone so far is missing. If I had to pin it to any one guess, I would maybe go with imports. Beer imports were always around to some extent, but it was also the way that c
