they had little nazi committees go around in pickup trucks and shake people's garbage bags and open them if they felt something was in there that was recyclable

 

we planned a few times to give them a good surprise when they opened a bag due to a pop can inside...

 

the local butcher agreed to provide us with something for the joke, but we moved out before enacting it

Eh, just deforest the counties that sued, sell the timber, and tell them here's your money. Darn shame that there's no more forests left to pay you to log.

a friend's parents in the rich district of a Toronto suburb had transferred to the US for business, so their White Elephant mansion was home for a half-dozen of us our last year of University and such

 

we didn't quite fit in with the unstated but assumed LAWS of the community

 

the realtors dreaded coming to visit to try to sell the home, but we were respectful and they eventually sold after a year or so

Disagree, there is such a thing as sustainable logging, fisheries etc.

Not sure about sustainable fracking though.

Greta Thunrburg has serious issues.  As in "She's going to develop a slew of affective disorders and kill herself by age 30" issues.  

 

I don't hate her.  I pity her.  I hate the adults in her life who are doing this to her.
