"Treehugger has long been calling for deposits on everything as the best way to eliminate litter and solve the problems of recycling. Still, it never occurred to us that something as small as a cigarette butt could work in a deposit system. But that's what the government of Catalonia proposed last year: a 20-cent deposit on every cigarette butt, which would almost double the price of a pack of cigarettes."

My contribution to #thicktrunktuesday is this wonderful #Mosstodon tree we found on a walk in the #WyeValley.
We couldn’t walk by without giving it a big hug! #Treehugger

Many companies are making net-zero-carbon pledges with no plans and no accountability. The UN is fed up with the #greenwashing.
"Using bogus ‘net-zero’ pledges to cover up massive fossil fuel expansion is reprehensible. It is rank deception." - U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres
