    The worst offenders of overconsumption are the wealthy. You refuse to accept that, because it would be something you can't pass the blame on to others - it would require you to take action that would impact you.

      The worst offenders, per head, yes of course, I do accept that.

      But I imagine their consumption is dwarfed by the collective consumption of the hordes of poor people in places such as India and Nigeria (among others).

        The last figures I saw showed the wealthy as a group consumed far more than 'hordes of the world's poor".

          That doesn't fit his narrative.

              So I have split my 12 bags of harcore into well over a hundred supermarket carrier bags, each fairly light, and I smuggle three bags out per bin each fortnight with the domestic rubbish.

                Hehe! well I did contemplate "The Great Escaping" it, by packing small bags tied to my legs and pulling a string to release it in some public space and shuffling it into the ground while casually whistling.

                But unfortunatey it isn't just dirt, and that technique doesn't work so well with broken tiles and bits of rusty metal etc.

                  'God intended it as a disposable planet': meet the US pastor preaching climate change denial

                  Turns out the earth was never intended to be permanent, it's a disposal object put here for us to use and dispose of as we see fit.
