Philosophy: Too much?
I missed the 10 PM deadline for most restaurants around here and went to Taco Bell. I ordered a "Seven layer Burrito" and "Cheesy Fiesta potatoes" to-go, and shelled $3.02 for it. After finishing the dinner, I was amazed at the trash generated. It included
- A receipt
- A Tissue
- A Moist Tissue
- A Fork
- Wrap paper for the Burrito
- Container for the Side
- A Polythene
- 6 unused packets of sauce (I consumed 2)
I am not a staunch environmentalist, but something doesn't seem quite right. In the land of opulence, I guess the trash is also in excess.

since most of the stuff on ur lilst are bio-degrads ... the environmentalist in you is safe.
although, if your point was traced more aroun the trash can -- well check out this stat -- america contributes 70% of world trash(2004)
it just makes me wonder -- they hide it real darn well here :)
