This Concept in Sustainability Is Strictly for Show
Re: the meme here, a reader notes:I don’t understand why we need disposable silverware in such quantities. I carry a little container with me, it was a gift from a friend. It has a complete set of silverware in it. Also had a metal straw that I use all the time. Everybody eats several times a day, how about y’all just carry some silverware with you in your bag?
You nailed it. We actually don’t need large quantities of disposable flatware. And collecting/processing enormous numbers of avocado pits, even at guacamole plants, isn’t feasible.
Anyone, regardless of his position on the consumption of animal meat–beef, pork, and the rest, has to admit that all this stuff tastes really good.
Great piece of graphic art here, but what about the content?

Whether or not you believe in the bible and what it says about the Anti-Christ is immaterial. As my colleague Joe Spease says, Trump “checks the boxes.”
Every time I see people watching a football game on TV I’m reminded of this quote.
I listened to a podcast featuring the former CEO of Pepsico, Indra Nooyi, hoping to hear her thoughts on some of her brands that are particularly potent in destroying our lives.
The term “geoengineering” means applying some sort of technology aimed at helping the planet to better support life as global conditions change, especially as temperatures rise. 
I’m sure there are many Americans who agree that, if we had our decisions re: lawn maintenance to make over again, we’d rather have built habitat for bees and rabbits than fashion our yards after the way suburban houses looked in the 1950s.
There is an argument being made, particularly in the Deep South, that our schools’ curricula should not include what academics sometimes call “critical race theory,” i.e., the set of facts surrounding black history in the United States. That means the telling of how the economy of the South was largely built on the backs of centuries of black slavery, but it also encompasses Jim Crow laws and the more subtle forms of exclusion of blacks from white society to persist to this day.
