On my commute this morning. Every week, these plastic wrapped packets of advertisements are distributed at every building. They are pretty useless and are almost never taken inside. Such a waste. It feels very symbolic of the relationship between our culture of consumption and our socio-ecological crisis.

And the long train of cars heading to the highway is icing on the cake.

@seanbala In some legislations this kind of wastefulness is forbidden (but enforcing it remains a problem)
