Today’s silliness
Whether it’s a police sting on kids picking daffodils or a dumpster diver handcuffed for “stealing” frozen pizza from the trash, there seems to be a spate of law enforcement over-reaction going on for minor eco-“crimes”. The latest is a sorry tale of an operation involving eight officers and a helicopter to recover a games console—allegedly worth less than a dollar in scrap—that was salvaged from a recycling center.
I agree with Treehugger’s final conclusion that there needs to be more recycling, but, come on, “eco-crimes”?
