      True for example straws could be repurposed into an fibre, woven into a rope, and tied around their necks.

      I understand the point, but if we all would only buy enviromentally responsible stuff, they manufacturers would be force to only produce in a sustainble manner

      Problem is that so many can even afford food, let alone sustainable food/things…

      And between buying sustaibable stuff and daying of starvation and buying normal stuff you know what we will all do.

        I’m off for everybody chipping in enjoying their part and recycling in buying better quality things whatever they can afford. The problem is 70% of the pollution comes from large corporations. It’s their product. And somehow the responsibility has shifted on the common person. It’s like asking me to pay for an oil spill in my backyard because the company is oil rigs are in my town, polluted my ground water. That’s definitely not my fault or something I had control over.
