Recycling

Having worked where I do for the last 10 months, I realised that money is in fact the ultimate motivator.. which makes me sad. The high level of laziness at work has a damming effect on the planet as you can see in the up loaded video clips.
My question is are the staff here lazy with a complete disregard for the planet, or, is it because they just don't get paid enough to worry about taking boxes to bits & taking off the cello tape & plastics.
I feel a certain sense of responsibility towards the Earth and I often wonder about the attitude of my colleagues. For example, I can say to 100% of them "you know we are killing the planet?" to which most of them reply "sure, I know, it's terrible". Although I can not tar all of my colleagues with the same brush, my message seems to fall on deaf ears a lot of the time.  My crusade is to get people to think about the planet a lot more than at present, everybody knows the questions but are stalling with the answers. One of the waste disposal companies which is employed at my site deals with paper & card alone, anything that goes in with the paper & card goes to LANDFILL (plastics, pvc's, metals, wood etc). Where as the general waste company brag that they recycle 64% of ALL waste they collect.
I have tried sending, memo's, putting up signs and educating the staff to the point of an obsessive compulsive and they still either can't be bothered or can't get it right. This leads me to a question... If the staff got paid more, would they start to give a shit? We are all Gaia's foot soldiers and need to take much more care of her on a much greater scale! Ok, maybe I don't totally go for the whole 'global warming myth' but isn't it just common sense to use our resources wisely and keep pollution down to a minimum?
I know this is an Exopolitics blog but I am sure if J-Rod or any other EBE, ET, God or trancendient being was speaking on this blog, they would say exactly the same thing!! Let's make more effort guys & girls and keep planet Earth in the pristine state she is meant to be and loose the ignorance & laziness forever. 

Don't worry people, next article will be exopolitical....I promise :)
