Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for October 31, 2024

I have never heard anyone say, “Yay! Time to go grocery shopping!”

Nice that the bag is good for the environment, horsie. Too bad about the car…

And the store is half block away.

Well at least horsie not flying in hi fi jets for climate summit.

Not use car. Goes for horsie cart ride.

It used to be you dreaded the person writing a check now its the person who brings the eco friendly bags, that have to be packed just right, and are usually a bag or two short that brings the checkout line to a crawl.

Ironic isn’t it, Horace?

You’ve gone from horse power to powered horse!

That’s your bag, man.

the halo is a nice touch!

I found an echo friendly cliff in Arkansas once. Pronounce that Orkinsaw and you’re one of them.

Horace, you can eliminate all the pollution by ordering from Amazon….!

He uses 400 horsepower when he only needs one!

I found a eco friendly bag from Menards in my garage, that was sitting on the workbench since COVID. Put some tools in it to haul into the crawlspace. It disintegrated.

Sadly, while every bit still helps (so don’t stop attempts to be eco-friendly just because other pollutants seem to off-set the gains at a glance), there is still truth to this—if the world is going to go truly eco-friendly, it kinda needs to do more than these small tip-toes towards the goal, done more in token than anything else by some.

As someone who uses eco-friendly bags though, I would urge the adoption of them, not just because they’re eco-friendly, but because I find them genuinely superior, on average being bigger and more sturdy than the plastic/paper store-provided bags.

Need a bicycle, Horace.

Go to the grocery store and fill your eco-friendly bag full of items packaged in plastic.

Doing his bit to make him Carbon Neutral, don’t see a problem with that.
