  • @gabepinnick mindless psychobabble!

  • Gabe, the posting was meant to address someone elses post...sorry for the confusion

  • @gabepinnick Gabe, you are correct, plastic is incompatible with life on earth with the exception of human life .....plastic is in and on everything you use and touch on a daily basis....I don't think you will stop using your plastic encased computer keyboard or cell phone casing anytime soon in the name of saving the planet....we all must do our part to recycle whenever possible...

  • @gabepinnick Pop quiz: What's the difference between styrofoam in a landfill & in a concrete dome?

    The dome is actually being useful?

    What else should be done with styrofoam that already exists?

    Burn?

    Bury?

    Use it in construction *BING* we have a winner.

  • did you ever come up with an insulation factor?

  • @CriterionCoIIection "ya..recycling is horrible for the environment...idiot!"

    Hey! True story: I heard they are recycling nuclear bombs into electricity! That's SO GREEN! Yayyyy! Or maybe they'll start recycling concrete from abandoned parking lots and turn them into dams for electricity! (Never mind those pesky salmon, or hell...The rivers themselves, God knows we NEED our microwave ovens!)

    Recycling won't save us, fool. Only organized, political resistance will.

  • @CriterionCoIIection If you knew a fraction of the reality of plastic pollution, and it's impact on the planet, you'd work to stop it's manufacturing, AND its use. Plastic is incompatible with life on Earth, literally, nothing on Earth can consume plastic. The ONLY way something can be good for the environment is if it can decay, give back to the land, and turn into more life. Pop quiz: What's the difference between styrofoam in a landfill & in a concrete dome? A: Nothin, it'll always be there.

  • @HGNnet ya..recycling is horrible for the environment...idiot!

  • @gabepinnick lol! you're an idiot!

  • @303Miles No Duh.. This is scattering the styrofoam all over the place.. It should be reused for the same things it was produced for, which is fairly easy - by that I mean packaging.

    Concrete is even worse.. Don't you know the amounts of CO2 produced in the process of making Portland cement..

    You are wrong, gabepinnick is right..
