About Kate
Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

Don't worry! The government is subsidizing the building of all that wind powered generation. They won't need any of those old fashioned steam power plants in Britain.
Progressive Progress!
/sarc
Why not have Britain just import wood from North America to replace coal and oil, and gas, and wind power, and solar panels, and nuclear plants .... wood ... the ultimate renewable. Although they were unable to regrow the forests of Europe that were decimated by greed and war and stupidity. But now they are all enlightened ... except for this french fry grease thing and oh ya the 20 million muslims they let in who are about to lose their welfare.
Ah, for the good old days when I just went to the dump that didn't have multimillion dollar buildings and didn't have a hundred public employees walking around waiting for the end of the day. One didn't have to worry about what colour the garbage bag was and we could drive it to the dump in an 8 cylinder car that got 15 MPGs. I knew it was taken care of the very moment the two guys working there plowed it into the ground with their big, black smokin' diesel earth movers.
None of this crap (that's right, I said it!)that we do today "for the earth" and which has cost us multiplied billion$ has made one iota of difference, not ONE iota I say, to anything except for lining the pockets of those at the top of the power chain and their cronies.
As I have done before when I see the stupidity of our superiors, I'm going to go and fill up my gas guzzling SUV right to the brim and let it run down the side of the truck for good measure. My truck, my money.
What does this have to do with french fry grease?
If you think education is expensive, just look at the cost of ignorance.
We can lead people to knowledge, but we can't make them think.
What Frank Q said.
In support of your comment, Frank, most of this so-called recycle gets shipped to China and land-filled there. A model of green economics; where do most of the world's solar PV panels come from? China. Where does Mo Strong hang out for the past half-dozen years? Peking.
Greens want fewer people in the world, and their economics runs in reverse too. It's designed to destroy wealth, not create it.
Nuff said.
most of this so-called recycle gets shipped to China and land-filled there...Posted by: cgh
got any proof for that opinion?
@north-of-60, MSM from Europe the Daily Mail did an article recently about where all those plastic bottles go. China. and they had pictures. It's just dumped there, vast piles of it for acres.
Same for the glass, it's just piled up, but those massive piles are state side.
Remember where our former Federal Liberal leaders sent their massive ships to be broken down into scrap metal?
Some desperately poor country without regulations of Canadian standards.
If recycling plastics are so good for our environment, where are our plastic recycling plants employing Canadians from the recycling we slavishly do?
How much can after market plastic be worth if they are barging it from here just to dump it there? Not to forget the extra expense we endure to get these plastics to the ocean barges.
where all those plastic bottles go
Not all recycled material is plastic bottles, and not all plastic bottles go to China.
Hyperbole isn't a defense for your opinion.
Provide links if you want to be taken seriously.
where are our plastic recycling plants employing Canadians
Exciting new advances in recycling technology now allow many kinds of plastic packaging to be recycled right here in Canada.
http://www.plastics.ca/recycling/index.php
See, that's how it's done, got it now?
Well hot head - your link proves nothing.
This is an example I find on your link.
"RPC is one of the world's leading suppliers of rigid plastics packaging. " Supplier and manufacture are two different things.
Does not say "they" recycle contents from our curbside boxes.
Where are the actual plants here that take our used after market plastics and turns them into ready to go raw material for next product?
This snip is from their Industry Profile:
"Canadian exports of plastic products have grown spectacularly from 18 percent of total shipments in 1990 to 44 percent in 2008.[5]
Plastic is also a ‘green’ industry. It pioneered the blue box; many of its products can be recycled and remanufactured; and as a substitute for glass, paper and metal, plastics help cut transportation costs, energy consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions.
Globally, plastics will be one of the industries that drive innovation, technology, and the knowledge jobs of the future. It has been and can continue to be a key plank in this country’s economic development platform. "
Nowhere is it mentioned how much of that is from OUR recycle boxes.
Now please, be civil, thank you.
yeah, yeah, it's just one of many sites you can find by searching for Canadian plastic recycling. All it took was one to disprove your hyperbolic assertion.
have a nice day
READ YOUR OWN LINK
Nothing about US melting OUR own used plastics down-but a whole lot of social programs, causes and plans for more programing for the kiddies, and a main trunk office in QC.
You're churlish and immature response proves once again you've no merit of your claim. So you double down repeating yourself as IF your link has validity of your claim. It does not.
Where are the brick and mortar sites here in Canada that melts/liquifies OUR recyclables into raw material for the next plastic product?
Where are all those glowing reports of how well we filter those smoke/exhaust stacks while melting down our completely, at our expense, sorted after market plastics? Think that'd be a huge feather in the greenies cap that they'd be spouting about that non-stop.
Save your snark, it's already lame.
