No I don't let the Media instigated anti-plastic phobia that the young are hyped up about get to me.

But TRUE STORY Last month - I saved the diffener transparent plastic wrapping from ONE WEEK 's shop at a local Asda ( Wal Fart -Yank Owned) where they had a promo about recycling. for 2 weeks last month & the first 2 this month - All the Bins were gone but the notice was still there saying Plastic for recycling here -
so I dumped the Black mixed Sack in front of the Customer advice station, with MY Large note attached stating - - Achtung achtung alle Geschäftsführung SchutzStaffel
Sort these PLASTIC samples - I REFUSE
SECURITY DID NOT GET MY BRIT SENSE OF HUMOUR
Until I opened the bag of soft & harder see through plastics,of various gauges & said -

ZO - Es ist Nein Bombe - BUT Vo is Da Bin Bin & Gon Innit pointing to the sign - and walked over to my Trike which had already been loaded, - I unlocked it & left the premises with Security arguing among themselves.

This week on Wednesday one of the check out ladies who's known me for many years was on the floor & said 5 management took 4 hours to decide which bin to put what in. - So I asked "Did you count their brain-cell per minute rate * - -- She said "you know ASDA'S Shiny arses think we can only count to 10.-- Her husband is ex RAF but was an Avionics Technician & They are both 30 years younger than me. .

I don't suffer from "Eco-Anxiety", but I do suffer from Echo-Anxiety. Every time I hear an echo I get really nervous and break out in a cold sweat. help Just the thought of going near a canyon gets me all uptight. blues I keep a lot of ducks as pets because their quacks don't echo. hug I never listen to music for fear it might contain reverb. grin

OnlyLiveTwice: Global trauma over loss of habitat, pandemics, bee die-offs, global warming, specie loss, rising seas, intensifying catastrophes. The endless litany of photos of marine pollution, the drum beat of the biblical end of days.
Is it all getting too much for you? How do you handle the psychological stress, the angst of eco-anxiety
Is this our most modern global malaise?

I don't even think about it. There's nothing I can do about it and those who keep spreading news about future catastrophe are the same ones who would talk about the end of the world approaching and Armageddon, but they cannot because they are atheists. laugh Still - it's the same state of mind. People who simply like sensational news and horror stories and like to imagine the whole humanity dying screaming.

No, I don't. Most news in the media is fake news.
As most people like to scare others, certainly when they believe they can to stay hidden and unknown. Unless...you are politician. laugh
Indeed it is a global malaise. What to do about it?
Screw it and life your own way.
