Styrofoam: Material...or MONSTER?!?!

I've decided America needs to wage a new war, since the ones on drugs and terrorism have done so well. The new war should be against Styrofoam, the world's biggest danger.

The manufacture and sale of Styrofoam has been taken way too far. Everything comes packaged within Styrofoam. And what is there to do with this Styrofoam? The rock-hard porous substance is insusceptible to being broken down, unless you want to find asbestos-like particles in your living space for weeks to come. Even then, the material doesn't collapse, it just gets cut in half. I doubt even Stone Cold Steve Austin could make it collapse.

Further, it now seems like people wanting the destruction of the environment have slowed to a lull. They no longer have any drive to create a product many times worse for the environment, because this non-biodegradable super creation has caused them to take a multi-year pause of wonder and amazement. How are we supposed to better speed the second-coming of Jesus if we keep waiting for lowly Styrofoam to ruin the earth? Exactly.... I think Mr. Regan's former Secretary of Agriculture would be very upset with you non-working anti-environmentalists right now.

I'm also convinced that this stuff will be quite dangerous if a tornado or very strong gust of wind comes into Portland. With Styrofoam rock-hard makeup, it can easily rip through someones house, or even that very someone (or both). Picture this: you're walking around town, minding your own business, when all of a sudden you come up to the many dozens of Styrofoam plants that line the streets. All of a sudden a burst of wind comes through due to a low and high pressure system meeting and...BLAM! A 2 foot by 3-inch piece of Styrofoam hits you in the head, rendering you unconscious. See, these are the things people need to think about before they grab for those foam water cups.

Lastly, Styrofoam lacks pizazz. If I want something destroying my environment, I want it to at least have 3 colors of the rainbow involved in it. Or maybe a nice shade of brown.... The point is, I think God will be pretty upset if He finds out the His creation destroyed the environment with a piece of ugly, all too white piece of crap material like Styrofoam.
