You don't take the sheep's Hyde, just shear the the wool.Maybe wool carpet will be the future. Last longer when kept up with. And if it needed to be tossed they could just take off the primary backing and the wool could be reused or would break down over time and be less harmful to the environment. But wool is way more expensive and peta would say its animal cruelty to take sheep's hide...
you still got them?How about starting with plastic grocery bags first.
I hope not!! That's what I use to collect the dog poop!!How about starting with plastic grocery bags first.
I am a dog owner and I totally agree with that statement. Dogs do not belong in stores with the exception of a pet store or maybe Home Depot. Never in a grocery store or restaurant.I cringe when I go into a store and see people bringing their dog in with them. Some will put them in the grocery cart. I am part of the CANCEL CULTURE against dog's in public.
Its a civic duty........ get it... duty.I laugh at the people walking dogs in my area and use those grocery bags to pick up their dog's SHIT. That is the one's who know you're watching and do it. The nextdoor app has a post about people complaining about all of the DOG SHIT on the walking trails.
Bending over and picking up a DOG'S SHIT should humiliate you enough not to own a dog in the first place.

This an interesting subject that I’ve been doing some research on lately. It’s hard to get hard numbers off the Internet but it looks like somewhere between 4-5 billion pounds of carpet go into landfills every year. A lot of plastic bottles are recycled into carpet especially polyester, but only a small percentage is recycled from carpet, as the process is time consuming and expensive. My point of the research is if people would just have it regularly maintained with cleaning and regular vacuuming, etc., they could extend its life and keep it out of the landfills for a few more years. That would make more sense to me.
Except when end up in the landfill as well.From an ecological standpoint, the only thing that makes sense is wood and stone floors.
Because it's not always wood. It has also been treated with toxic chemicals, which is why they don't accept it at incinerators.What’s wrong with wood in a landfill?
