April 26, 2009

My last article dealt with the enviromental lunacy going on in our country. Here is another example.

A lot of plastic goes into the making of those laser print cartridges. They take up a lot of space in landfills and surely there is a lot of material (plastic) there that can be recycled. So what kind of value does Staples put on it to save the planet???

$0.01 per cartridge. Don’t you think if we were saving the planet by recycling these things it would be worth more to the world than a penny a laser cartridge? The answer is no because first of all, it will not save the planet, second of all, the planet is not in trouble, and third of all, most of these cartridges are ending up in the garbage anyway!
