[Vwdiesel] Rural vs urban pollution

I strongly disagree
human beings are capable, each and every one of us, of being little  
'smokestack scrubbers' in our daily lives in our local environments
not just in obvious ways, like reusing and recycling, but in more  
radical ways
if every resource we consumed were a waste product that needed to be  
remediated, we would automatically be cleaning the planet by living
let our fuel be garbage (waste vegetable oil, used engine oil), let  
our building materials be garbage (old tires, surplus burlap)
or put another way let our wastes be our resources
that, and what nature provides for free, will do us fine
all we do is live
HOW we've set up to live takes care of the rest
