On the list


It's frustrating being an eco-kid and trying to live ethically when others who one might think would be on the same side do not. The following people will be reported to Captain Planet and the Planeteers who will no doubt ensure they come to a sticky end:

* People who buy cage eggs when they can afford free range. Very mean. If you want to torment chickens do it in person.
* People who take plastic bags for a single item. Especially if that item is a newspaper. Turtles hate you.
* People who do not put bells on their cats, especially if they let them out at night. Stupid.
* People who don't recycle, especially when the recyc bin is less than a metre from the regular bin. Too lazy to be true.
* People who drive for trips that are less than 1km and do not involve carrying pianos or whitegoods.
* People who drive to work by themselves in a car every day when they could take public transport and then arrive at the office to complain about the traffic, the price of petrol and air quality. Aaaaaargh!

You forgot:

*People who send all-staff emails and read receipt EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM

*People who take their shoes off in open plan offices. Are we at the beach?

Not environmentally damaging per se, but still extremely irritating.
