Recently saw a person broadcast a message on media. When others questioned her on the facts, she ran back to her little media silo (where you get only one sided views on whatever issue you’re interested in) replying to others but saying she didn’t want to hear back. Hmmm.

In order to have a free and just society, we must listen to the perspectives of others. That doesn’t mean we have to accept everything everyone says. If you’re going to quote ‘the experts’, I am going to ask you who those experts are, and what their experience is. If you can’t be questioned, then you’re running in the direction of Joseph Stalin.

Always remember to look at both sides of the issue. Your nation will last longer with thinkers than suppressors.

Recently visited some friends in the US. We visited the mountains and took the ski lifts to the top saw a garbage can with two whole. One for ‘recycle’ and one for ‘landfill’… The whole ESG, sustainability thing seems a bit cult-ish, but that doesn’t mean we should be poor stewards with our environment.

One thing that always seems strange around the world is landfills. Why do people dig huge holes (landfills) and bury what they don’t ‘recycle’ in the ground?

In Japan, even many of the small cities have high-powered incinerators to burn up everything that can’t be recycled. After seeing this for decades, it is really hard to imagine burying your trash.

The garbage can next to the mountain ski lift spurred me to think… maybe it’s time for people to rethink landfills. Either burn it up, or recycle it if it doesn’t burn.

The Japan model seems to work well. It would be nice to see landfills eliminated. Our first family house was literally taken over by a dump that spread from behind the property overtaking the lush green pastures, and eventually overwhelming the house situated on that country road. The whole property is an now ugly landfill.

In the end, we’re supposed to be getting a new heaven and new earth… but for now it’s a good time to take a bit better care of the earth while we’re here.

Remember when Linkedin.com used to be a business professional site? (Well more like a job site, but that’s a different story…).

Now we can enjoy people

• ‘virtue signaling’ about how ‘good’ they are promoting this cause or that,
• see corrupt political figures promoted like national heros (we all know who they are),
• and the new religion of ‘woke’ telling us the sky is falling and of course that cows are evil while they ‘brag’ about being ‘carbon neutral’ on their flight across the world.

Just tell us about what products you have, and how cool they are, and save the rest for Facebook. You’ll have more friends for it! 😉
