I know people will say that electric toothbrushes are for lazy people, but its really helped my dental care routine and improved my visits to the dentist!

Electric tooth brushes are the next generation of ways to destroy our planet. To add to the frustration of stupidity in the world lets not forget that to power/recharge these brushes requires electricity, which last time I checked was still mostly produced by other equally or more destructive ways. Good job leaders of the world. Maybe we can destroy the planet in 20 years instead of 50. Here’s another idea maybe nuclear bombs would make an even better fireworks show. Or maybe we can build a more powerful bomb. Well, I guess those kids whose parents we let die from curable disease’s will just have to starve. We have a new bomb to make so we can save the planet. Wait, something about that thought process didn’t seem right. Oh yeah, and since it is in the best interests of the tax payers, the government should fund this new bigger bomb project. Anyone who throws rocks at us to try and stop us will be considered a terrorist too.

Nice to see some people with some sense on here. Keep promoting the good fight people. Maybe one day things will change.

For example, perhaps in the future, another (beige?) curbside recycling box, specifically for electronic goods, with collection at regular, albeit low, frequency until the floodwaters of silicon rise considerably.

Indeed, maybe even putting a small (but non-trivial) deposit on electronic parts to encourage their return, combined with an at-purchase fee charged to either the consumer or producer to cover the cost of the recycling. The deposit would encourage the products to be returned to be recycled, and the levy would ensure there’s an incentive and funding to do so.
