Gold Member BOHICA Posted April 22, 2017 Gold Member Share Posted April 22, 2017 I love putting up powerlines to new green energy producing facilities. Tons of aluminum and steel in the air. Then you plant a 60-80 year old tree treated with a chemical that you can't pronounce and you drive by that area a year later and the ground around the pole is black around where each pole is, as the chemical drains out of the poles into the ground. Then you think about all the other chemicals and shit introduced into the enviroment to have green energy. Some nasty shit for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is stuff that is so bad the govt is withholding it from the public because of the liability. We in the business know, but it isn't talked about publicly. It cant be that bad .....its just some heavy metals. Nothing radioactive for the most part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im4snow Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 It's like a money tree......businesses that clean up man's present and past indiscretions and/or combat mother nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing radioactive for the most part I blow a hydraulic hose on a small machine you'd think the resulting quart of two or lost oil is gonna end mankind as we know.....listening to my State DEP with all their forms and procedures regarding said hose blowout. Based on that I can't imagine the EPA and State enviro agencies are "allowing" pollution from a big old factory the way some describe it.

Nobody is going to predict an ice age or a super heated environmental. But can we stop living in the trash pile in the mean time? Regardless where you stand on MMGW, reducing pollution is a no brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02sled Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 And 50 years from now people will be reading the prognostications of the so called experts today and laughing at the stupidity and inaccuracy of them. They will be thinking, gee, why isn't the planet a vast wasteland like the doom and gloomers of today are predicting that government is eating up so well so that they can tax everyone to death.

But I think this only feels like an extreme swing back because it was so far out of control in the left field. I mean ridiculousness to the maximum max stifling growth at every turn. "Obamanomics".

I think everyone should try, by all reasonable means, to keep things as clean and preserved in as close to a natural state as possible knowing we cannot keep them in perfect and naturally pristine conditions everywhere and all the time. However, my own hypocrisy only goes so far. SOOOOO, I think some should try a much, much harder...so I can try a bit less. Good 'nuff?
