Just my thoughts #0797

Survival of the Fittest and Cooperation: Examining the world from the perspective of competition for survival reveals that only the strong and fittest survive, a concept often referred to as “Falling Prey to the Strong and Survival of the Fittest.” However, there are cases where this principle does not apply, when each entity cooperates with the others. Then, rather than surviving because they are strong and adaptable, it may be that they are strong and adaptable because they survived. Cooperation is an act of a very peculiar nature. The truth is, those who cooperate are the strongest. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Eco bags are not eco-friendly. In 2007, the eco-bags, which British designer Anya Hindmarch printed, “I’m Not a Plastic Bag” on canvas, sold out 20,000 copies in 30 minutes at a limited edition price of 5 pounds. The project reduced the use of plastic bags by 58% over the next two years in Britain. However, a survey by the British Environment Agency found that consumers used paper bags at least 3 times more to have less environmental impact than plastic bags and used eco bags 131 times more to help protect the environment. In 2018, Denmark also announced a study that indicated people used plastic bags at least 37 times, paper bags 43 times, and eco bags 7,100 times before being discarded to recover from pollution. Yes, the facts that people believe have cheated us all. Materials and consumption are necessary, but people belatedly realized that environmental protection should also consider product use cycles and production. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
