Made purely by robots.... very strange indeed!
...Not how I would have pictured the factory in my head!

"This machine spits out 15.000 heads an hour" I so want to work at LEGO.

damn robots, stealing jobs from humans.

I find it sad that geeks get all worked up about carbon footprints and yet plastics like these, considered "worth it" by our demographic, are forgiven. Fifteen BILLION pieces a year. The priorities are not consistent. Wake up, sifters.

Except that generally speaking, Legos aren't something that gets thrown out. Most get passed on to kids or grandkids, a Lego is a Lego, its never going to get obsolete.
Not only that, but Lego is great for building imagination in kids, or even adults. There are many things that are plastic or some other "harmful" substance that are actually useful and put to fair use in their considerable lifetime. If there were tons of Lego filling the bulk of our landfills it might be an issue, but I seriously doubt that. Some of them do get tossed undoubtedly but not nearly enough to be concerned with. Bark at milk jugs if you want something a little more concerning.

Exactly RadHazG... RhesusMonk has his outrage hat on backwards. The problem is not in creating items from plastics Rhesus, the problem is in making things from plastic that are then discarded straight away, such as milk containters as RadHazG said... My kids are now playing with the lego that I had as a kid. Some of that stuff is over 30 years old, and still going strong. If it were made from something biodegradable it'd be destroyed by now, and hence we'd have had to have bought many times over the same pieces just to keep playing with them.

Lego is NOT something to get worked up over environmentally. As well as being an enduring toy, it also TEACHES kids SO much in the creative and engineering and mathematical spaces that its worth cannot be overstated.

You don't throw out lego, because you don't get tired of it, you break it down and build something else. Lego is truly the greatest toy of all time.
