As far as I know it applies to anything where there's a risk the chemical can affect the body. Like food and cosmetics (and the containers if there's a chance that anything can leach into the product), but I can imagine it also applies to clothing fabric because it's worn on the skin for a long time. Door handles and things like that? Less likely. But definitely toys, because children can (and will) chew on them.
For instance, the US would require a 75% reduction in beef consumption just for it to have enough grassland for it.
Aren't you looking from the wrong end here? Ban anything but grass-feeding, put high import taxes on beef (the latter should be easy to sell: protect domestic farmers!), and consumption will go down automatically, because the supply drops by 75%.
That's only true if there are enough carnivores like wolves and bears around. If not: goodbye forests. Hunting is pest control.
Beim Einmischen bezog ich mich auf einen Palestinensichen Staat. Das ist alleine eine Angelegenheit der Menschen dort.
Natürlich kenne ich die Geschichte, den Holocaust und die Staatsgründung.
Und jetzt ist der Stast da, und ist für mich ein Staat wie jeder andere. Mit dem gleichen Existenzrecht wie jeder andere. Darf man keine Bomben draufschmeißen.
Und ich wäre sogar für eine weitere Staatsgründung in der Gegend: Palästina. Wäre dann ebenfalls ein Staat wie jeder andere auf den man keine Bomben schmeißen darf. Aber das ist eine interne Angelegenheit der Menschen dort. Andere sollten sich nicht einmischen.
Jetzt müssen die nur noch aufhören das als Weltuntergang zu begreifen, und wir sind langsam auf dem richtigen Weg.
Nach der Logik dürfte die Regierung überhaupt kein Social Media nutzen
Stimmt. Offizielle Stellen sollten keine Social Media nutzen. Punkt.
Talking about clothes....
I like to dress up a bit. More formal than others. So the opposite of fabric softener (I use 25% acidity white vinegar for that): potato starch for crisp shirts.
If you are courageous enough: yes, you can wash suit jackets. Cold, very little detergent, wool cycle, slow spinning. But jackets hardly need that anyway. A good brush gets you a long way. And a spray bottle of Vodka, to freshen up the lining every once in a while (no, you won't smell like a drunkard).
And of course: second hand clothes. Especially the more formal stuff because (way too) few people walk around in suit and tie and only buy them to wear once for some formal occasion and resell them afterwards for ridiculously cheap.
The average wind speed over all of North America or all of Africa etc. is quite constant year round.
The waste disposal is a solvable issue
Strangely enough it hasn't been solved in the almost 70 years of nuclear energy. And I doubt it will be solved in the next 70 years either.
You can often find second hand machines in excellent condition (sold by people who think they are too large after they bought them?). Mine was about €20.
I use bread mixtures from the supermarket which cost about €1.50 per kg and are good for two small loafs.

Exactly. My neighbour went shopping today. I will have to go tomorrow, but why should my goal be to bring home more groceries than her?
The economy is a tool to supply people with stuff. But it's not a competition. If I have enough food I don't need more. Enough is good enough for me, regardless if my neighbour bought more. Or less.
