Our people have so many blessings. It’s beyond the scope of many peoples around the world to begin to imagine how well we have it here in America.
It’s all our “white privilege”.
Trump said it. It starts with s- and it ends with -hole.
India had a major river that was a slow flowing, bubbling septic sewer, from way too many people, in too many villages, towns and cities were doing their business near the river. Hopefully that’s changed in the last 10 years. This river is mostly litter.
I was in Indonesia in May of this year and had a day free for sightseeing so I took a boat tour out to Krakatoa. The boat had to stop twice to remove plastic bags from the propellers. Arriving at the shattered remains of the volcano was picturesque with the three remaining remnant islands covered in greenery and the new Anak Krakatoa island rising in steam from the middle of the caldera. It was gorgeous until the boat arrived at the black sand beach and we had to wade through 5 meters of rubbish to reach the shore.
The left wants an unfettered flow of people who will come to the US and do this to our lakes and rivers. And this is far worse than global warming.
Make a bouillabaisse out of that for visiting democrats.
“The World’s Dirtiest River...”
If Washington DC were a river...
You think that’s bad, watch this film about India:

And they still breed like rodents over there.
Terrible pollution. Let them clean up before they start demanding stuff from us.
Things that come to mind: Over-population, irresponsibility, & packaging.
These people are crowding themselves out. Why? Don’t they understand that what they are doing or not doing is unsustainable? With so many people, couldn’t many of them be employed for trash pickup & disposal?
What fool craps in the same place as they bathe & drink? With all the rain they have, wouldn’t runoff water & catchment systems be measurably cleaner than the river? Simple gutter & barrel systems would save millions of people & dollars. Duh.
Why must consumer items be wrapped in multiple layers of plastic? Bring back paper packaging & paper bags.
Finally, much of the developing world is filled with, I’m sorry to say, filthy people who crap in their drinking water. We don’t need such irresponsible people migrating here.
What’s wrong with the video is it tries to tie the blame on “plastic”, that “plastic” is evil, when the problem is NOT plastic, it is people.
