Why do people at Environmental protests waste so much Paper?
Answer:
maybe they are just hypocrites...save the animals.chain yourself to trees.i just dont get those ppl
they probably use recycled paper.
Because some enviromental protestors do not believe in "irony"
because paper can be recylced many times, unlike plastic which is one of the reasons fuel is so costly, because we waste millions of dollars in oil to make, use once, and throw away plastic shopping bags.
Not all environmental protests are wasting paper. I would think they are smart enough to use recycled paper and also recycle that paper they will be using.Hopefully they were in a city with a recycling attitude.
Its just a new kind of party for them. There is always a mess after a party that should be cleaned up.
I have never understood this either! like the people that are protesting fur by tossing blood on people wearing it, or vegetarians that wear and buy leather products. I am all for the environment and recycle and conserve but I try to not be a hypocrite about it.
Hopefully, these protesters used recycled paper and cardboard. And (hopefully) when they were done protesting, they recycled that paper and cardboard again.
I agree: let's have "clean" protests.and let's make sure that our protests don't become part of the problem. The Earth is in a big mess; it needs our help! -RKO- 05/15/07
I agree. You would think words and the message was what they are trying to get out. On top of all that if they left the papers on the ground than there not only wasting paper but polluting.
If they are true to their cause, then they either use recycled paper or else recycle their paper afterwards. If not, then they are not true supporters and are not conifent in the cause.
Well for one paper is BIODEGRADEABLE so even if they left it on the ground it would've ended up somewhere it could decompose in peace, and for another thing you sound like the type of person that doesn't care anyway! You should be ashamed of asking such a hypocritical question in the ENVIROMENT section!
I know! I totally agree with you, I don't understand it either.
I ask the same question about Ithaca College, which I currently attend. Ithaca, the city, and also the college, are both known for their green and sustainable lifestyle. Sustainability is definitely the buzzword on campus and is fervently promoted. Which is fantastic. However, the campus, especially the Office Residential Life, wastes SO MUCH paper. Resident Assistants are required to create 8 bulletin boards a semester with different backing paper each time; multiply that by 80 people (roughly the RA staff) and you have 160 bulletins boards. These boards frequently get ripped down, honestly serve no purpose, and are thrown away every month. That is a tremendous waste of paper!
Also, the Office of ResLife sends out about 100 fliers every day; often more with the addition of Duty Schedules. These fliers are intended to be posted around the RA's floor to inform residents about whatever. This is also a ridiculous waste of paper because half the time no one reads them, they get torn down, or the RA does not put them up.
Bulletin boards and fliers could easily be reduced or eliminated with an email. A ResLife mailing list would still provide residents with information but in a much more sustainable way. Also, this is more efficient. Flier turn around is much slower than typing and sending an email. Doesn't that make a whole lot more sense?
thats a good question. i've wondered that myself. we can only hope it is recycled paper and continue to do our part to live clean and encourage others to do the same.
Simply put...
Because they think that getting their message out is worth the paper that they used to do it.
That is an excellent question. They certainly shouldn't do so, and I'm sure many don't.
because they are fanatics
