@matt
So bottle caps are still an issue?

And am I now supposed to be for or against it? Also: Why?

Show threadSamuelJohnson2d ago
@s10n @matt bottle caps are a disproportionate share of what washes up on beaches. Whether it's an issue for you depends on whether you prefer a right to pollute or to have a clean beach and generally an environment freer of non-biodegradable waste.

@samueljohnson @s10n @matt
i confess i don't have enough information here: HOW do they end up on beaches?

i hate the things pushing into my face. if i cut the cap off am i non-evil if i ensure it goes into recycling? in which case, i'm in favour of them.

@fishidwardrobe @s10n @matt They end up on beaches principally by ending up in rivers. Ever realize you've got the means to answer such questions in your hand?
Show threadFish Id Wardrobe ⁂2d ago

@samueljohnson @s10n @matt i'm not actually looking for answers here, in fact; that was a rhetorical question.

(although you now have me wondering: if rivers->beaches, wouldn't that be via the sea? and isn't the point that we don't want them in the sea, rather than on the beaches? … that's another rhetorical question.)

@fishidwardrobe @s10n @matt Would you like to be muted for being a jerk? You just were.
