stop wasting our cash on green tokenism
what's the point of having all these fancy recycling schemes if most of it ends up in landfill anyway, I was talking to a friend who works at the local council and apparently it's a right old mess, they're just chucking it all in together and calling it a day. My proposal is to simplify the whole thing, stop pretending we're doing more than we actually are, and just focus on reducing waste in the first place, that's where the real change happens.
I mean think about it, we're still using plastic bags and straws and all that nonsense, and yet we're patting ourselves on the back for recycling a few cans and bottles, it's just not good enough, we need to take a step back and look at the bigger picture, what's causing all this waste in the first place, and how can we actually make a difference, not just feel like we're making a difference.

Vote on individual policies, adapt them, or write your own alternative. Good ideas should be tested.
