Environment - September 2006

Our local recycling centre in Kent has separate skips for wood and metal, however paper and plastic all go in the same one. Why do they allow you to do that if it was really going to be recycled? I assume since they are both light materials, it might just be a way of getting us to sort rubbish so it can crushed maybe and then taken more easily to the landfill sites. All very depressing if true!

Global Warming is always preached to be true and that all must recycle, drive electric cars, and not spray their hair with aerosol cans! I've seen that as a question of the day a dozen times. But what about the other view? Why can't the news be spread that it is false? Or is that denying the liberals' 'state religion'?

PS- I recommend you read Ann Coulter's GODLESS

In the morning when the temperature is generally 40 degrees lower than it is in the late afternoon and there is considerably less light energy my soil pH levels are in the 6.0+ range.. and in the afternoon when it gets to be hot and sunny they drop to 5.5 or lower range... can photosynthesis speeding up throughout the day change pH levels that dramatically?

I recently visited relatives in Iowa and noticed all of the windmills. I am wondering if the farmers get paid by the electric company for allowing the windmill to be put on their land. If so how much?
