Some GREENIE Will Slick That SUM-BITTCH Up with their Pocket Change just for the 'LOOK AT ME' Factor!

I got one sentence in.
Recycled concrete? That shits been trucked more than bubbas sister. You know how much diesel has been burned to get your recycled concrete? First, the original concrete is mixed at the plant, sent to the site, eventually dug up, trucked again, crushed, mixed, then trucked to the magic house.
Sustainable timber? Isn't all timber sustainable?
Then bla bla bla
I'm not buying it. I cant afford it.

 

[Bluehair]

The greenwashing in the construction industry is shameful. One of the reasons I hung up my hardhat.

Not to mention the smugness of someone who claims their $32 million home is carbon neutral. Blow me.

Its amazing what some people can be convinced of when you wrap it up in a cute little save the planet gift bag, or a politically correct ribbon. It would be hilarious if it wasn't costing everyone so much actual hard earned money.

You must have missed this part....."and comes with an organic vegetable garden, orchard and apiary, according to marketing materials."

As Bobcat would say, WAFJ!!!

One prospective buyer will by flying in on his private jet from New York to check it out.

I Don't know the Answer!

But I Do Know it took alot of Diesel Fuel to Truck it/Train it to get it there!

I’m betting 3 rail cars a year…

Depends on the heat rate of the system to produce 1MW per day.

 

[EVILNR]

Some commercial the other day: some kid talking about "sustainable farming - yeah its a thing now".
Uhhh, yeah. Since there was farming. WTH?

People in Malibu and the like are truly convinced that the answer is zero.

Most of these lemmings are so wacky, they NEED to believe in, and participate in these green scams just to make themselves sleep at night. Same ones so miserable with their own lives and choices, they need to drag someone down with them. Special breed of people I tell ya.

 

[Homer]

Yep...and some tech mogul will buy it and get interviewed non stop on the MSM about how much better he is than all of us for doing his part to save the world......while actually doing less...

People will praise him.....

 

[elkassassin]

And In His/Her Own Mind They Don't Think They're Leaving a Footprint!

Not anymore….many are very smart people who are cashing in. I’m a capitalist first, so I don’t blame them. I just couldn’t sell something I didn’t believe.

The dbag that buys it will use it as a weekend home and get on his jet to get there. Definition of hypocrisy

Do you know why Al Gore, John Kerry, and Greta don't speak at Russia or China?

tell us.....pretty sure I know the answer

 

[elkassassin]

The Government Has Wasted Trillions!

Padded Many Pockets!

Not One GAWD-DAMNED Thing has been Done Other Than the Sale of Obama Juice for Belchers!

China Will Tell the Whole World To Pound Sand & They'll Keep Polluting as they Please!

And You Will Breathe Their BS!

This World Won't Last Long enough to Worry about it Though!

 

[eelgrass]

Because Russia and China are already Communist.

Doesn't take much to be the smartest one in the room with that sort...

Well, they're feeling the effect now. My niece lives in a place with $4.50 gallon gasoline and no job.

You'd think with a 4.0 in bio engineering she'd have had prime pick of what, where, and how much...

 

[RELH]

Al Gore will buy it and get rid of his mansion estate that burns carbon at a rate of $1600 per month for utilities.
