This seems to be COUNTER to the anti trash, save the planet left wing rhetoric.

Can someone explain to me why this is not a problem?

Who has said it is not a problem? Your 3 articles all seem to indicate it is a large problem

100% True!

Lefties, when you ignore shit like this, it makes it obvious that you really do not believe in any of this shit.

 

[MarathonMike]

Golfing Gator The New Woke Order is 100% focused on pushing Climate Change laws. All we hear about is windmills, solar panels, and EVs. Outside of a token statement here and there about the floating garbage dumps in our oceans they DO AND SAY NOTHING about solid waste pollution.

 

[EyeBRollin]

Nice strawman thread. It’s amazing what goes on in the mind of conservatives.

 

[MarathonMike]

ColonelAngus That means that used Covid masks will be entering the food chain. Yum Yum.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Lefties, just say it:

WE WANT POWER. WE DO NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT.

We all know it....just admit it.

Trust the science phuckerrr!

But, at least I didn't catch a cold ...

Lefties, when you ignore shit like this, it makes it obvious that you really do not believe in any of this shit.

Ignoring you is not ignoring the problem.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

I am so confused, the OP post 3 article talking about the problem, all 3 saying it is a big problem and all the the Trump worshipers are claiming nobody cares.

If nobody cared there would not be 3 articles form the MSM about the problem.

 

[whitehall]

How do they end up in the ocean? Is that where cities like Hong Kong dump their garbage? If that's so we have more to worry about than masks.

 

[ColonelAngus]

What is the proper way to dispose of masks?

How much NON BIODEGRADABLE garbage have the mask wearers generated in the past 2 years?

Very non environmentally safe.

You lefties are frauds.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Think this through.

Lefties outlaw smoking at the beach under the guise of preventing cigarette litter on the beach and in the ocean.

THEREFORE…..masks must be eliminated because of the concern about pollution in the ocean.

RIGHT?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Nice strawman thread. It’s amazing what goes on in the mind of conservatives.

Now you do not care about solid waste disposal?

 

[EyeBRollin]

Now you do not care about solid waste disposal?

More strawman bullshit.

 

[ColonelAngus]

More strawman bullshit.

WHy won't you address it?

It's not a strawman. It's an actual issue.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT ALL THE GARBAGE CREATED BY MASKS WITH A BIODEGRADING LIFE OF 450 YEARS?
