London To Ban Bottled Water At City-Run Facilities
Tuesday August 19, 2008
CityNews.ca Staff
The bottled water backlash is alive and well in Ontario and on Monday the City of London demonstrated as much by becoming the latest Canadian municipality to hatch plans to eliminate the popular products.
The London city council has voted to stop the sale of bottled water at all city-run facilities including office buildings, arenas and community centres and possibly even golf courses.

Thank you.

The flower industry has a very large carbon footprint, uses land that could be used for farming/natural vegetation, requires the flowers to be put on trucks which use oil/pollute/congest roads.
The flowers will typically last only a few days and then get thrown in the garbage and release vast amounts of stored carbon as they decompose.

I still don't know what that means.
Why don't you buy some of that flower growing land and farm it? Or, every time you buy food grown on a farm, you send the owner of the land some extra money? Money and guns talk, and money is the far more moral way to talk.
Sadly, most "generous and loving" liberals seem to prefer guns - in the hand of police - as their method of manipulating the market.

Why should we care about "society" and what does it mean if we do care about it? What is "society"?
I care about people, not the government. Well I care about the government because it affects the people.

It also lets people do something that others find valuable in order to earn their room and board.
In contrast, a law denying people these things would violate their Right to Pursue Happiness, and they'd be justified in putting a bullet in the head of anyone trying to imprison them for this.
Last of all, it's none of your f*&^ing business what flower growers do. If you don't like it, too damn bad. You're not Emporer of the Universe and if you were I'd fight to depose you.
