Decorating Hypocrisy...

...or “Where I draw my line.”

I’m a good little environmentalist. I separate my rubbish. I cycle to work. I re-use carrier bags. Heck, I’m even a fully paid-up member of Greenpeace.

But.

I will happily and with only the merest twinge of conscience, buy and throw away three of the cheap B&Q “Value” roller and tray sets every weekend I do any decorating, for the rest of my life, if it means I never have to wash the sodding paint out of a sodding paint roller-brush thingy ever again.

Hmmm. On the other hand, if it doesn't go down the drain it's going to end up at the landfill. Painting's just quite an environmental disaster all round, really.

I wonder if Ethical Consumer have ever done a bit on paint. On the other hand, if they have it'll probably put me off painting for life.
