is that produces or consumes? i.e. is the figure due to manufacturing or consumption?

If it's manufacturing it could v easily be due to all the pharma that's produced here, which is typically very heavy on the packaging

this shows an interesting trend; amount of waste in general per capita. some countries seem to produce an insane amount.

Was at Roscrea anti racism vigil yesterday.
Excellent account of what happened in Examiner. About 60-70 people attended and we are very committed.

Roscrea is 'completely against racism': Tippeary town holds rally in support of asylum seekers

More than 60 people from nearby towns including Cloughjordan, Nenagh, Clonmel, and Cashel turned up for an anti-racism rally which included some of the local asylum seekers

Folks from minority groups were asked to speak but for various reasons didn't feel comfortable.
Really only one guy tried disrupt the vigil and a few fools shouted things from a distance as they passed.

I haven't been in Ballymun in a long time, but isn't new build private development 15 story blocks a bit like a sick joke?

I suppose I'm being naive but i didn't think lidl even bothered with stuff that isnt bungalow style supply depots

they haven't even applied from PP and had told no-one. this is some weird pre-emptive strike to claim compensation.

my hunch immediatley is that they want a train station that has an escalator directly into a lidl

Spoiler: meanwhile

have you ever thought about escalators being called the same thing even when you are going down them

The other 36% are lying.

By online i'd say they mean on a laptop rather than just looking at it on their phone

 

[Kermit McDermott]

That's still online

 

[ann post]

I think i have the 'thats the joke' simpsons image on my C drive here somewhere

 

[Deadmanposting]

Not to anyone in particular, but I don't know how good a use of your emotional resources that trying to change your parents views on things is
The idea that we are all fully enlightened and without moral blemish enough that we can go proselytise our truth to people with more life experience that us - well I've tried and tried and failed at it

Loving people unconditionally for who they are, is where it is at for me
There's more happiness for everyone there
