Lazy Work Wednesday

Apparently, if you put your dog shit in the bin it goes to landfill and causes methane, I read recently, adding to green house gasses. Oh, that is disappointing, I thought, as the rubbish man has been taking away my dog's shit for years.

In the long, distant past, there was a bin left on the front footpath that nobody claimed. It just sat there and sat there for months, until one day I had the bright idea to claim it and put my dog's shit in it, and I have been doing that for years now, and the council has been collecting it.

The article I was reading didn't actually give what you should be doing with your dog shit? Other than, if you compost it, you shouldn't put the compost on edible plants.

Good thing we are past the point of saving ourselves, climate change wise, I think, we're done, we didn't fix it when we had the opportunity, as I justify what will be my ongoing actions with the dog shit collection.

I think if people put as much effort into climate change as they do these pointless Save Gaza rallies, or Trumpian style political rallies, or self driving cars, or robots, even, we may just save the human race, but nobody seems to get that passionate, not at all, about the most clear and present danger of climate change.

Oh, of course, some people do, but they are effectively ostracised by the community for disrupting their travel to work, or getting in the way of their shopping outings, or are branded 'radical' by the anti-climate change forces. (and we all know that 'radical' is the antithesis of conservative belief)

Climate change protesters are more likely to be called nut jobs than saviours, funny how that works?

I wonder how history will view them? Much more kindly, I would suspect.
