Hijacking termites  :P

Rather than talking about de-forestation you can make a real difference by not buying any paper/cardboard products, never build a fence, or a wood structure, never use firewood, get rid of your rotting wooden house especially do not buy wood furniture of any kind, its a long long list of how much our civilization relies on wood products. Just look at all the wood Playmobil uses for their packages that end up in most collectors garbage cans.

It sure wood be nice to have more real trees around shading our earth

Our playmobil trees rely on the exploration of new oil wells and that is not the most environmentally friendly venture either

Nice forest by the way George, the second picture looks more like a commercial tree farm though

For the record, all my playmobil boxes and bags go in the recyling bin, not the garbage can.  0)

I am already having a massive problem with space , god know how i will set it all up but one way or another you shall all see a playmobil massive forrest with lots of trees and animals and magic in it ... !!!

Giorginetto - I followed a link through to your collection of Romans earlier*. They clearly outnumber the trees - I too would be worried about space  :-[  I think if I need any space here, I will get rid of anything that doesn't possess a hard flat surface.  I can't display Playmobil on the sofa, for example.

As for my boxes, the Playmobil ones go up in the loft for ever, boxes for things with guarantees go in the loft until the guarantee runs out, and it (along with cans, paper, textiles and some plastic) gets put out for the recycling lorry every other Thursday.

I never really considered the origins of our little plastic pals though. The modern world would stop turning without oil, although I'm no expert on how environmentally unfriendly oil extraction is (with the exception of pollution incidents).

Hijacking threads. Whatever next  :toot:

*Amendment - since I posted this, I hve now read about Giorginetto's shopping trip  8}

Very good,bb! But I need to convince you to keep all of your PM packaging ;)! There's presently a contest between local high schools here that are going through a land fill, & resorting garbage into recycling areas. They interviewed one young girl showing a black plastic bag full of plain white typing paper weighing quite a bit, thrown into the land fill pit that they moved to a paper recycling area. They were all dressed in Haz Mat suits, gloves, & masks while working for a month to see how much of a difference each class could make, & the winner would be by weight salvaged.

That sounds like a cool project. Some of my best memories of my teenage years are from a few days spent in a huge construction dumpster, sorting garbage. No joke, I'm serious. But it's a long story.  :lol:

We have to sort our own into the right bags/boxes or they won't take it away. 

I bet our good old UK health and safety laws wouldn't let school kids within 100 yards of the tip. Sounds like a useful project.
