…on carbon credits

“Think of the deal as Catholicism for the environmentally aware - you can pretty much do what you like but you have to atone for it later by buying something that makes you feel better about doing the thing you probably ought not to have done in the first place. Carbon credits are Hail Mary’s for green wannabees.”

…on piss (and shit)

“I absolutely never wash and I’m proud to say the smell of wee coming out of the four un-flushed toilets in my house is positively overwhelming. Making our contribution to water-saving, this family is sticking rigidly to the if it’s yellow just be mellow and if it’s brown it goes down mantra.”
