what's the point in you recycling a cardboard box
when countries like china and india are pumping tonnes of coal into the environment every second, eh?

Yeah, better to forget about the whole thing
and add our fully industrialised waste to the pile, eh?

dunno
i have never found the recycling bins in my block - bag goes outside the door, porters take it away. done.

except that i am never in, so i am probably the lightest bin use they have.

what?
i am out most nights, therefore hardly put anything in my bin. certainly not worth finding the recycling bins, which could be anywhere behind any of the blocks, for the sake of about 1 pizza box a year.

You don't know where the recycling is and you just leave it to the porter to sort out?

not to go through the rubbish bags
i produce so little rubbish at home that i normally just chuck it in one bag, and i don't even fill a binliner a week. work is different; everything gets recycled here.

on the occasion when i have a lot of recycling, eg if i've had a party and there's a million bottles, then i put them in recycling bags and the porters can chuck them in the right bins. i don't see a problem with that. it's part of the £11,000 a year service charge that i pay to live there!

Er...you what? £11K? What the fuck?
For a grand a month I'd expect a morning BJ from Susanna Reid.

That's nearly double what I pay for a three bedroom house.
Are you mental?

And that's just the service charge - your rent or mortgage would be on top of that. Crazy.

yep
but portered blocks with things like lifts and electric gates etc are expensive. you know that before you buy it, so you factor it in.

See now, I'd rather just climb the stairs.

What's the point in not killing yourself when you are ultimately going to die anyway?

Cos in 20 years time, when they're all dying from pollution-related respiratory diseases
the Chinese will suddenly figure out the whole renewable energy and recycling thing as well.
