11. All my new technology is diverted from the waste stream.

Jul 2017

My mid 'eighties car has a salvage title, many of my clothes were found in thrift stores, my computers and cell phone were discarded by others. I still occasionally use my VCR.

If somebody gave me a brand new Tesla, brand new Apple or Microsoft product, curved screen ultra HD television, or other cutting edge technology I'd give it away quick as I could to someone who cared.

My computers run Linux, which is very similar to the BSD operating systems I used in the late 'seventies.

I think most of the industrial revolution was a terrible mistake.

We humans are eating the planet earth and that will bring about the end of this world civilization many of us now enjoy.
