Yeah that is good. Bums me out that we force them to use gas generators and not have running water mainly to avoid extractive rents, but that can be fixed. Mandating you bring your own container as I swear take-out contributes a huge portion of urban trash would also be a doable improvement.
- boolemancer 5y agoMaking it less convenient (e.g. by requiring customers to have a container on hand) is a great way to have fewer customers. Why not instead mandate compostable containers?
- Ericson2314 5y agoBecause reuse is far better than composting. I think the issue is less intractable that it might sound. Food delivery could pick up last meal's dishes. Or offices could have dishwashers. That trash is so cheap, and sources of trash so unregulated (because just raising the cost of trash leads to litter --- need to impose cost on the producer not consumer) got us in this rut. The inconvenience you speak of is more effect than cause.
