Bioplastics continue to blossom—are they really better for the environment? -

americasnexttopsoil:
This is pretty interesting.
> Bioplastics have come a long way since the days of Alexander Parkes. Today, these materials can be made from many renewable resources: cornstarch, beet sugar, kiwi skins, shrimp shells, wood pulp, even mangos and seaweed. They can function approximately the same as materials like vinyl or PET, the plastic most commonly used in drink bottles. But if these polymers don’t actually have a smaller carbon footprint than plastics refined from petroleum, they may only be another example of greenwashing, a misleading marketing tactic more about image than outcomes. That’s one of the problems with the fact that there isn’t yet a universal definition of “bioplastic.”

Anonymous asked: You don’t have to get angry when you hear opinions different from your own. It’s called being an adult.

it’s not about opinions alone it’s about someone’s obvious bias formed by opinions that has innacurate information. if someone’s opinion is leading them to lie and exaggerate, I have no reason to continue reading what they write, and I don’t.
you need to understand that in actual ‘adult’ world you don’t just validate and accept every opinion even when it’s based in false information.

I don’t know who this bloke is, but I definitely think we should all start saying “thriving wage” until it becomes a thing
This makes me think of that line Hopper from A Bug’s Life and just the relationship shown between the grasshoppers and the ant colony:
In case you can’t see the quote very well, “Those puny ants outnumber us a hundred to one. And if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life. It’s not about food, it’s about keeping those ants in line.”
Are you telling me that when i watched bug’s life i was actually watching a proletariat revolution?
