“And
Man created the plastic bag and the tin and aluminum can and the
cellophane wrapper and the paper plate, and this was good because Man
could then take his automobile and buy all his food in one place and He
could save that which was good to eat in the refrigerator and throw away
that which had no further use. And soon the earth was covered with
plastic bags and aluminum cans and paper plates and disposable bottles
and there was nowhere to sit down or walk, and Man shook his head and
cried: "Look at this Godawful mess.”
