broVbro 🇺🇲people often bemoan the fact that we could survive on one income in the 1950s. Part of the reason may be that we needed less stuff. Houses were a quarter the size, we could only fit a quarter of our possessions in those houses. People knew how to fix their own appliances and mend their clothes.

nickyCall me crazy but i think banning consumer single use plastics (outside the medical industry) would have more green impact than EVs. I stopped having the debate after a man insisted his 5 EVs were more green than any ICE.
