Really? You're going to consider yourself an "environmental bad guy" because you might throw away a thin wall steel pressure container? Those are completely biodegradable, although it might take awhile, compared to our human lifespan. Speaking relatively, it's a real short period of time as compared to the age of this rock we live on.
No, you won't hear me bad-mouthing you over a disposable steel propane tank.
See,this is the type of thing that I have a real problem with. Those who make money off of the "green" movement preach up a storm that anything you throw away makes you an environmental monster, and you should feel horribly guilty for ruining "their" planet, and you're all buying into the big guilt trip. Some of them would find fault with you for tossing an apple core onto a compost heap.
I'd be willing to bet that if their lives were investigated, you'd find that they are no different than the rest of us, and they own and drive a "gas guzzler", throw away an average amount of trash, and even (horrors!), buy fluids in plastic or HDPE bottles. Why?.....Because that's the only way you can get the stuff, and they make money off of all of it.
I suggest that the majority of you guys here on this board do more than the talking heads do to save the planet for future generations.
