I have seen landfills and they are certainly an eye-opener to behold. Not only that, but travelling around this Country has revealed to me that a lot of Metro areas seem to be slowly disappearing below a layer of trash. There will be trash lining the ditches and street sides. I have bore witness to locals deliberately dumping tables of half-full drinks onto the street/sidewalks in Philadelphia because they were "too busy", or whatever, to dispose of the containers in a proper manner. KC is starting to resemble Detroit more with each passing day. I could go on and on about the trash piles accumulating nationwide that aren't even connected with actual landfills. For this reason, as well as many others, I support the Venus Project. If you haven't checked out the Venus Project, you should do so at this time. One of the standards put forth by the project is that all items manufactured be designed to last as long as possible and be fully recyclable. When this is not possible, any parts would be easy to change in case of a breakdown, unlike with today's standards, which require you to own multiple tool sets and part types to get a simple job done. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted and Resteemed!
