I guess another thought of mine would be, why not just sleep in a tent? That’s way more eco friendly. You can even take it with you on the back of your bicycle or fit it into a Smart car! (snicker)

So, how fast does that RV go? What kind of waste does the vegetable oil leave in the engine? What is the engine life? Does the vegetable oil freeze in the winter?
I’m thinking too hard!

You mean they think? News to me. Nothing against being eco friendly, I have a batch of solar panels, and heat with wood pellets made from waste sawdust, but not everyone can power everything all the time with solar and heat with waste sawdust. There just isn’t enough of it. But there I go, being practical and thinking. Sorry bout that.

I loved Penn& Teller’s show on recycling. They pointed out that companies like Weyerhauser own hundreds of thousands of acres of forest, which they manage for building materials, paper, and other wood-based products. Truly successful recycling would reduce the demand for their products to the point where a large percentage of these forests would be sold to…DEVELOPERS! Which result then is better for the environment- a managed forest where every tree harvested is replaced, or more tract housing? A large percentage of what ecohippies believe in is backwards thinking.
