Looking for shit is second nature! : Mrgreen: More seriously, it's easier to find than interesting, durable and virtuous things ... :(

It's been a few years since I've seen people completely peel the banana to eat it, rather than peeling only the top of the part that we are going to hold, which makes it possible not to get our fingers full. . Carrefour must work for them ... Even the monkeys often keep the skin down and eat above. Another sign of returning to the caves?

There is worse than stupid objects, it's the subscription to objects, stupid or not: a way for the producer to have captive customers, who will have their objects renewed whether they like it or not. , whether the items are used or not, and who will hesitate to change brand since it is less easy, the subscription will have to be terminated.
Example of the green industry, the subscription to the "biodegradable bamboo" toothbrush!

1: no one is obliged to take a subscription
2: customers are not captives, they can cancel their subscription whenever they want
3: this sales practice has existed for decades for all kinds of products, the most famous being newspapers
4: with regard to toothbrushes, 4 per year is a minimum and therefore does not lead to overconsumption
5: it is indeed a 100% biodegradable product (which is not the case with all "bamboo" objects) and not plastic crap
5: given that none of your arguments are valid, your post is ultimately only there to tap once more on ecology in a roundabout way

Flawless regurgitation of the arguments of the teaching of today's consumer society.
Here is one, good for the subscription to his quarterly pair of socks, his weekly pastis and his pine scent deodorant for his toilets.
