ATL been thinking about 'refill stations' a lot lately (avoid using single-use plastics / materials) - based on the idea that actual recycling in america is not really a thing. not so passionate about it - just give it 30 min of thought a day, then move onto the next thing. but now thinking, maybe other countries actually do do recyling, so maybe it's just a matter of doing more education / legislation activism?
