    When I was a kid, it was “Reduce, Re-use, Recycle”. The order was quite intentional.

    Nobody ever talks about the first two anymore. Probably because they are wildly anti-consumption and thus bad for business.

    I went on vacation recently. Visited Houston, Austin, and Dallas by EV. I was, and still am, amazed that the giant gas stations along the highway (Buc-ees, Road Ranger) are still using Styrofoam cups at the soda fountain. I can’t believe those are even still being made.
