Real Plastic Talks: Plastic The Villian or Plastic The Friend ?

Ongoing acts of plastic 

display for art walks and talks...

The tendency locally seems to be by some to selectively villify plastic... but the reality is this is one of the most amazing human achievements we all benefit from.

Town's garbage bins made from recycled milk jugs.

The only thing better than plastic is recycled plastic!

Plastic the useful friend to humanity...

or as George Carlin would say:

"Earth with plastic!"

go ahead.. add to the collection

  So why ban these materials we utilize? Control freakery mostly stemming from ignorance. 

A Nova Scotia 'first' - home was built with recycled plastic bottles!

Its good to think well of 

the usefulness of plastic

as a human achievement.

 If you ever have the chance to visit the UK's "Eden Project" their gift shop is huge and features all sorts of useful items made from recycled plastics and other materials... its located in an old clay pit re-invented into amazing gardens, exhibits and human friendly educational spaces.. especially loved the exhibit on Industrial Hemp... found in beautiful Cornwall in the south west of England and I highly recommend it!

I was fortunate enough to visit The Eden Project in Cornwall in June 2010 -- I recommend parents take their children there instead of a Disney-type vacation.

Footnote:

Plastic is a part of the lifestyle we know and love... its useful.. and randomly 'banning' some plastics is just ludicrous 'activism'.  Recycling is a huge opportunity to tap into untapped resources.

Thanks to Dave's Rock Emporium for display of plastic in varied colours... hopefully people have a conversation about this topic of new technology, creative recycling, and real productive work...

Sackville issues $560 in fines for violations of flyer bylaw | (warktimes.com)

Pulling together and using ideas and innovations is what will help humanity -- complaining about things and demanding things are banned is fascistic activity - is that the legacy you aspire to? Why?

"Never mind the bollocks" and continue celebrate plastic in your life.  It may seem the unpopular position but it is the right position...

Just remember that God loves you - find God.

See you around the town....

Young people should be educated about Bucky Fuller instead of David Suzuki - I have no idea why they are not taught about Bucky's life and work unless their Agenda is to dumb them down?

If you haven't heard about Bucky Fuller and you're in your teens, 20s, or 30s, or 40s don't feel too bad.... your education was like mine, a little lacking, as I didn't learn in public school about Bucky's work and it wasn't until I was in my early 40s with children of my own that I was pleasantly surprised to discover about the life's work and efforts of this man who was a major contributor to our society's way of thinking about intelligent design, optimism, nature, technology, creation of architectural builds, forward thinking, human positivity, and functional innovative projects .. I discovered Bucky thru Peter Joseph Merola - Zeitgeist Movement filmmaker and by reading his books and visiting the fabulous Expo 67 exhibit that remains to this day in Montreal Quebec on the island they built from the soil they dug up to create a Metro underground system!  Pre-UN Agenda 21 there was a whole other world of creativity and development that focussed on the "up with humans!" ethos which is not the case today.
Bucky was an optimist.. he thought that humanity were great and that they were worth fighting for ... that we're "going to make it.. " [humanity] and so do I - why wouldn't we?  More than ever we need intelligent design; not social engineering and behaviour modification -- they are two very different things.

Bucky Fuller was an Optimist.... American Inventor
