Seattle to fine residents for,throwing out food!

You don't recycle, your plastic? You conservatives are short sighted, it's all about the money, evironment be damned.

Leftists don't give a damn about the environment. They give a damn about FEELING GOOD by telling everyone they CARE.

The truth is that it doesn't matter if food rots in a landfill or in your backyard.

This is about control, just like it always is with liberals. They have spent the last 30 years complaining about garbage that isn't bio-degradable. Now they are bitching about food that IS bio-degradable.

It is amazing to me that people put up with this nonsense.

Liberalism belongs in the garbage.

Composting is great; I've done it for years Why can't cities do it on a large scale?

The Food Nazis

You liberals have used the environment as your FEEL GOOD religion for far too long. You don't give a damn about the environment. You only care about controlling other people and FEELING GOOD about yourselves.

Meanwhile, conservatives are busy doing important things like keeping the world going, while you liberals spend time making up stupid rules on how to tax and fine people.

As for your precious recycling, most of it ends up in warehouses. Nobody wants it.

Conservatives do conserve. We just don't make a religion out of it.

You dont.get it. People who WORK at JAWBS got.rights.like.to.smoke where they pleases and.toss their butts and to fill.plastic. bags.with organic waste and tie them up and.put them in the landfill where they wont be able.to.compost.

Gawd.forbid.they should have.to put their carrot.tops separate.from.their.cheetos.bags.

Methane! You know what that sounds like, something illegal!

Greenhouse gases, something natural in Seattle that isn't a coffee bean, it must be a terrorist plot.

Mold grows on things that are ...organic. Mold could be eeeeevil!

It's not beneficial for environment. Your environment doesn't need puny mortals. They'd save the environment more if they closed up shop and jumped off a cliff, and you don't see that happening.

Why do that when they can give the extra food to Washington where all the bums are? It's only a state away.

Seattle residents need to switch to more liquid coffee than rotting...green food like things with calories and carbs. Carbs are terrorists you know.

Open fruit, not hidden behind refrigerators that consume energy, that is a bad thing? What fucktards.

Im just curious to know. Seattle's compost bins look just like my trash bins...If I put just food waste in one those things, it would be stinking to high heaven, attracting vermin off all sorts long before it was filled up. where I live, it would be considered a health hazard to the community.

If you don't have a garden to compost for, what do folks do when those bins are full?

Clearly.
100% true.


DO AS WE SAY AMERICA!....NO FREEDOM FOR YOU!


:obeyo:

The worst part is that the residents are PAYING for their own oppressors who want to fine them for not doing what they say.

Read that again. You are paying for the very people who want to control you and take more of your money.

Who is John Galt?

I don't like eating stale bread. Especially if it gets moldy.

Oh well..

How dare you try to think for yourself! /sarc

Rotting garbage in ANY type of can is a disgusting health hazard that will attract every rat in a 50-mile radius. I thought human beings figured that out a few hundred years ago.

But NO! If a liberal says it's a good idea, why then it must be a good idea! /more sarc

and don't forget the rats, mice, cockroaches, flies, extra bugs and stench! Time to leave the city, but it won't belong...

even the 'stoopiest' lib is 10x smarter than you, you sissy closet queen-i suggest you go put on some make-up and stop bothering us here

and your comment header DID NOT need a comma-are you an illiterate female cracker?

It feels good to simple down and not waste so much. Im bsck on the farm. I have to drive my own trash into town. When its for my own convenience I can buy what i eat and not,waste, compost what i can, and,simply avoid buying newpapers and,plastic packaging. Its not a hardship.

Maybe if everyone had to drive our own trash to the dump we,would all become more responsible.

Guess where all of that compost shit goes? That's right. Right in the same exact pile of the other garbage.

The government hired a contractor to look in peoples trash cans. Guess how is on the board? That's right.

Libtards are easily manipulated.

Seattle the New Poster-child for Progressives (the new communism) and Socialism. If you use a pick-up bin keep your food items in your freezer if you have the space and keep the food waste frozen until pick-up day... Let the rats go to your neighbors.

In Seattle there are THREE receptacles - normal trash, recyclables, and yard waste. Seattle rules the world!

And we're even gonna win the Super Bowl in a few days!

They are looking through your trash? they know which trash is yours??

Stasi informers.
It's been done in the past.

PURE FASCISM.

the trash man that picks it up is the one who writes you up - it's like a trash police

I was right there in the thick of it at the NO WTO protests, mostly as a curious college student. DAMN! It was crazy, I remember smoking a blunt with my friends on top of a bus stop about 15 feet from the line of armored police vehicles and cops with riot shields. Dumpsters of flaming debris and trash blocking the entire intersection on 3 sides.

You'd hear a "poof" and then see tear gas cans flying down the street. Tried to run away but only way was downhill toward the water and the gas followed us. That was a crazy fucking day.

Im just asking some questions to clarify things for myself should some dim-witted person attempt to start something like this where I live.

I vaguely recall that unsanitary conditions like rotting garbage and sewage was the cause of the plague in Europe---spread by rats attracted to the "organic" garbage

and of course its not like these bins will ever get gouged and leak or get knocked/turned over.

You are all forgetting. When people have the freedoms to choose, they will choose wrong. Noting wrong with recycling and composting. I'm not quite in Seattle proper. But here, the whole city has big wheeled green bins(30gal,45gal or 60gal. It depends on how wasteful you are. The less you waste the smaller can you can have and lower fee), blue bins (60gal), brown bins (60gal) and a small blue bin for glass bottles. Once a week it's trash and recycle day. Then the next weeks it's yard/food waste days (all in the big brown bin).

What's so hard about that? Nothing. We should all be recycling. I even rinse out my used ziploc bags and recycle them. In the kitchen I have a trash can, a recycle can and a smaller can for food scraps. We can even toss out greasy pizza boxes in the brown yard/food waste bin. With composting and recycling. I just have two standard tall kitchen trash bags of trash for two weeks. If we all composted and recycled, our Earth and us, would be so happy.

My redneck neighbor cares not about recycling. I mean they don't recycle a thing. I've looked. Their recycle bin always has just a couple things in it. Like Hamburger Helper boxes and some Cool Whip tubs. Their family of 4 produces enough trash for a family of 7 or even 8. They even have a bigger size trash (green) bin then most do. Most people have the 45gal, but he has the 60gal. And us people who take a bit of care, can have the little 30gal. That also means I'm paying less. Who doesn't want to pay less? He drinks a lot of cheap BUSCH beer in cans. I asked him a long time ago, to save them and toss them in my recycle bin. He got all mad, accusing me of going to go turn them in for money. Yet he just tosses them in the trash.

When it's the evening before trash day, when we all wheel our bins out. In the cover of dark, I pull on my hoodie, get my Carhartt's on, slip on my gloves and tie my boots. I sneak out to the curb, and get what beer cans I can out of his trash. I usually just find about 20 or 30 cans, but every little bit helps the Earth and me feel good.

I do it for all of you who don't and won't.

the cities don't recycle the huge containers, silly!

Recycling is a trap for the unwary and gullible.

a wonderful science teacher who would love for this to be different revealed this last year in class:



Recycling is a net harm to the environment in all cases except aluminum, which requires a great deal of energy to make.

Paper, plastics et al can be recycled, but the energy required to recycle them brings a net harm to the environment. They are far more renewable than aluminum.

She said to recycle aluminum and forget the rest, the rest is just about training people to recycle.

NOT about doing any real benefit for nature.

You throw them in the blue bin, if they have no CRV.
