Yesterday CocaCola won court case to stop a recycling refund in NT.  It really is very disappointing as this program was really working well.  As we don’t have kerbside pick up for recycling it was the refund was the incentive people needed to do it.  I guess I shouldn’t really be “disappointed”  this is the sort of behaviour expected by big multinationals of very questionable ethics anyway.

On the local radio here they have a competition where they play a song that relates to a news item of the day and people have to guess what it is.  Yesterday they palyed that song, ” I fought the law and the law won”.  It made me really sad how often this is true.  Fighting big machines is almost imposibale.  In saying that I will be boycotting Coke but as I probably only drink Coke once a year I am not sure my boycotting will make much difference.  So I wish to encourage those of you who are and  care about the environment to join me.  This action really does suck bad.
