How high is your social-consciousness meter (Part II)?

You didn't put the cigarette butts in the dog's shit before putting it in the bottles?

 

No, that's ridiculous.

 

Wait til your kids start playing sports.

Play the Armen Terzian game.

Makes the games go faster and becomes a parent bonding experience.

I tend to the social consciousness whenever it's practical. Obviously, if I'm running on fumes and the only gas station close enough for me to get to without running out of gas and calling AAA is an Exxon or a BP, I'll suck it up and put a little bit of their gas in my tank until I can get somewhere else.

That said, I largely boycott Target nowadays because of their donations to anti-gay politicians. And I used to go to Target at the drop of a hat.

One of the many reasons I love where I work is my company has a perfect score from the HRC on pro-gay rights issues. And my company has donated to the Trevor Project.

 

I will recycle but sure as hell don't need a guilt trip over it.

You want me to classify trash. And sometimes that requires I get my hands dirtier than I have to.

 

I don't recycle cans and bottles because it steals jobs from bums.

 

That's funny
In Ontario, you pay a deposit on all beer, wine and liquor bottles. 10 to 20 cents each.

I was taking some bottles back the other day (total refund was $2.70) and this dude had about 25 totes
full of bottles and cans. He had counted them all and his refund was like $65.00. Probably a day's work.

He had a bike with a trailer so he was also being environmentally responsible.
