More sustainable environmental lies. How the Oregon bottle bill has finally completely failed.

People who take bottles back to stores that they paid deposits on are learning these days that the automatic machines are almost all broken or too dirty to touch where they still exist and they also find out that they have to take their return bottles now to out of the way recycling centers to get money for them because supermarkets including Costco and Walmart no longer have to handle the cans and bottle returns. Fortunately for them because it has become a complete awful mess. Now what is happening is that the system is evolving where people putting the deposit on the can or bottle at the store are just expected to be permanently out of the money. people are now expected to toss the bottles into the recycling blue roller garbage cans so the companies picking up the garbage get to cash in the bottles. It is a total mess and an unnecessary one.

Along most of Old River drive the fro

If it was not for the pseudo science of ecology we could have infinitely more fish in northwest rivers and beyond. The environmentalists actually are the real cause of fish declines. The original numbers we have for salmon runs come form canning facilities along the Columbia river more than a century ago. Everything else they have to say about the fish is fabrication. The salmon had to climb cascades as difficult and worse than Willamette falls in Oregon city today. The Indian tribes controlled the salmon at these points of difficult uphill cascades passage in the gorge for several thousand years. The river was much more polluted than it is today when salmon runs were much larger. The Indian populations along the Columbia river were higher per square mile concentrated along the river than anywhere else in north America at the time in pre Columbian times. Beavers had everything dammed and were so numerous the river was fouled by Beaver feces and from the Indian populations alon
