People will do whatever is nice and economical. If you want people to make certain choices, the easiest way is to make the "wrong" choice uneconomical. > I wasn't but I'd think yes it's better. Collectively more 'efficient' w/ infra & logistic scaling. I completely disagree. People used to live on the country side and take care of both earth and tools. Today, labor is expensive and materials are cheap so people will toss away stuff. City life is all about just consuming and it will automatically lead to people getting disconnected from the stuff that truly matters. What bothers me most is when I travel outside my country and realize there is practically no recycling, even if it is very easy to do so.
