      I know you’re joking, but as far as aluminum is concerned, this is true. Which is why paper and glass are crucial.

      I think this is sarcastic but just in case. Given how much paper we used before and that this is something that works great with recycled paper and that we can make paper from grasses like bamboo now, I don’t see the need for rainforest cutting to do it.

        Yes it was sarcastic. Plastic bags were pushed to “save the rain forest”. But we never had the problem to begin with. We have since switched to mostly tree plantations for are wood/paper production.
