Not quite sure where this topic should appear. I am sure there will be many who put me right on this point.

Does anyone else feel their efforts to recycle, conserve energy and generally to try and do something to reduce their carbon footprint is completly wasted?

Someone starting a new war or conflict, China opening yet another dirty coal power station or nature setting off an eruption seems to me to negate any puny effort I make.

Does anyone else feel like me on occassions why bother? At least if you ignor the hype you would not have various cartons lying round your sitting room with different recycling stuff in?

It would be lazy to not bother.

This really struck a cord with me. I hate waste so there is very little food or anything else that is thrown away at our house but I agree when in competition with the big guys such as goverments and nature our efforts are worse than useless.

Anyone want recipes for left overs?

I find it all rather depressing.

Whichever way you look at it it'll end up as waste so it's impossible to actually not waste anything.
