I was watching the documentary “Buy Now! The Shopping Conspiracy” on Netflix and heard this comment when discussing waste generated from consumerism.
It made me realize, yes we don’t throw garbage “away” because away doesn’t exist … we just pass it on for someone else to deal with. Sometimes that next person might not deal with it right away but eventually someone has to deal with it.
Lol I literally just watched the same documentary today. It was good (and horrifying), but I really hated the AI voice gimick they used. It probably could’ve reduced the runtime by 15 minutes if they removed those parts.
