This is the man I acquired my Jamaican Red and Hawaiian Apples from many years ago.

If the technology actually works and people never polluted, the wind never blew, plastic pellet transport trucks didn't spill on roadways, people stopped smoking or using plastic straws, etc etc etc, it could work.

I hate when people seem to go out of their way to make us seem like pricks who just don't care!
Garbage is bad as we all know, it is a problem to be solved in the near future. We know that and,
one thing that makes us different then any other, now or before us is that our view of us is and has been to not only make things better but, to amend when we screw up. And there is no recipe for never screwing up, but that is not wrong unless you don't do what we as a whole have tried to do and I think in comparison have done especially well, when you compare the rest of the world in their attempts and efforts to make up for a screw up when they gave a crap at all!. Sure we are not perfect and more than a few unworthy got away with more than a horror story and are still living the high life on the pain and suffering they caused. But, that is not and never was us! In fact we should be more famous for what we have done and are doing to save people and things after any travesty caused by us or not etc... When you look at the size and the scope of all things we have become in such a short few hundred years, how we grew from the mixed masses of the unwanted. We were never for killing and stealing, we were never for slavery, we the people were never for poisoning streams or land fills, a few unsavory got away with that also at the pain and suffering of others, obviously we weren't for war, Those were the things were running from when we came here! I think it is time to start dwelling on all the good we have done!
And then ask yourselves how much would other countries care about the effort to conserve etc. would China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, Cuba , France or any of those more culturally advanced countries care at all and even now do they care about just about any of the things that make us a horrible country!!!!!!!!!!!
