Sun Chips

Your Captain grills a lot. And his friends bring over "Sun Chips" as a snack. Of course you can't ignore the boasting of their green credentials because all over the bag they brag about how the bag will naturally decompose and their sun chips are made with "100% natural sun." So you could imagine my happiness when I saw this on Sun Chip's banner advertisement on You Tube.








Apparently you can all upload what you did for Earth Day. It is subject to censorship...err..."moderation." We'll see how long Michael's stays up.

The electricity that powers the computer servers that host these advertisments create more CO2 than is saved anyway.

Not to mention the inorganic acids that are used to create the computer components are orders of magnitude worse than any bleached paper or carbon.

I'm from Waterloo originally, and I find it ironic that a sixteen year old kid solved this whole plastic bag problem two years ago. But, see, if we can break down plastic bags trivially in landfills, we can't charge people for them at supermarkets.

Next time you go to the supermarket, grab one of these bags off the shelf and play with it for a second. It's the loudest bag ever.
Daniel, that story about the kid's experiment is awesome.
