Apparently Earther is under the impression we all wash our shoes down the drain and into the ocean.

Also, the reason for the outcry about microbeads in soap and facial creams is that they are literally designed to be used with running water that then goes down the drain.

So... not “micro” beads at all, not the same material, not going down the drain, just foam in a different shape than all the other foam shoe soles that are being manufactured nonstop around the world already. Are we just reaching for a connection because they use the word “beads” because this is feeling like a really…

Stop putting the cart before the horse for where the problem truly resides. Bitching about carbon emissions for being online... What? You expect people to give up digital and just spend the day outdoors being green?

The article is basically bullshit. Oh, electricity makes carbon? Guess we should get back on that nuclear power train. Eco-shaming people for watching video on the internet is asinine. 

If Netflix and porn disappeared, suddenly you have hundreds of millions of bored people who need outlets for their surplus attentions. Most of them aren’t going to turn to crocheting or any other comparatively carbon neutral, they’re going to pile into the cars and go find something to do.

That was 2 years ago, and since then Trump has continued to mire in chaos and divisiveness.

Oh boy, censorship!

At least the Tesla will stay in its lane consistently. That jack ass in the white BMW who you’ve passed 4 times because he never truly gets ahead is far more of a risk.

Exactly.  I would gladly take Tesla autopilot over a 17 year old with a smart phone, any day.  

Of course emerging technology isn’t perfect or completely trustworthy. This isn’t news. But I drive 2 hours or more each day for work and do you think I’m keeping an eye out for Tesla’s, or do you think I’m keeping an eye out for the assholes weaving in and out of lanes in heavy traffic who think that they're invulnera…

This article is complete garbage Brian. You’re the reason reporters have a bad name. Report facts, or leave the industry. I used to think Gizmodo was a decent website... you should be ashamed of yourself!

Breaking: water is wet.

I especially like the pop-up ads that automatically redirect you to another website that you can’t go back from.
