Seniors - What generation do we deem responsible for making the green thing necessary?

Q. I showed this to my oldest daughter (53) and my youngest daughter(45). Each wanted a copy to show their children. The oldest could completely identify with it. The youngest could remember some of how we once lived life.

âTHE GREEN THINGâ
Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags werenât good for the environment.

The woman apologized and explained, âWe didnât have this green thing back in my earlier days.â

The clerk responded, âThatâs our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations.

She was right â our generation didnât have the green thing in our day.

Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled. But we didnât have the green thing back in our day.

We walked up stairs, because we didnât have an escalator in every store or elevator in every office building. We walked to the grocery store and didnât climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks away. But she was right. We didnât have the green thing back in our day.

Back then, we washed the babyâs diapers because we didnât have the throw away kind. We dried clothes on a clothes line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 22 volts â wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. But that young lady is right: we didnât have the green thing back in our day.

Back then, we had one TV, or just a radio in the house â not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief. Remember them? Not a screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didnât have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers we saved, to cushion it, no Styrofoam or bubble wrap back then. We didnât fire up an engine and burn gasoline, just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human/manpower. We exercised by working so we didnât need to go to a health
club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. But sheâs right: we didnât have the green thing back then.

We drank from a water fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a throw away cup or plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. But we didnât have the green thing back then.

Back then people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24 hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didnât need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint.

But isnât it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didnât have the green thing back then.
Justin - Thanks for answering. Maybe I should have asked, for thoughts on - what all created it?
ROXY - I didnât post this for a reason to - blame.
I posted it so it could be shared.

My children want to share it with their children and hope to wake them up to the reality of the problem. Sometimes knowing is believing. Iâm still doing my share of conserving and hope everyone will do so.


Answer
You are totally correct, DeeJay.

I am not sure when it started exactly, but the people who
push it, seem to think that it is all their idea and that no
other generation re-used materials.
Apart from milk bottles here in the UK, there is very little
that we do send back to source for re-use today.
Things like Tetra-Pak who gave the world the waxy coated
box/package for liquids thought that they would be doing
the world a favour by saving on glass, but they have simply
added to landfill or incineration plants.
At least glass could be recycled to make more glass containers.
It is a crazy world.!
