Went for dinner tonight, they don't split bills. My partner paid for it all, ended up being about $79 each. I watched one of the people we were with doing his bank transfer. He put $70 in the amount to be paid then wrote in the description "$79.00".
He had $15000 in his account.
Hey bus drivers of Melbourne. If someone misses the bus by literally 2 seconds because they were waiting to cross the road, don't sneer at them and tap your watch when they ask to be let on at the red light 10m away from the stop. Makes you look like a cunt π
Now I'm not saying don't try and re-use and give things a second life. Its better than just throwing stuff in the trash, but its not the solution some say it is. Re-use just hides the problem for later.
Ok, lets talk about how giving items a "second life" is not a solution for plastic waste. π§΅
Lets start with a fairly common example, reusing a plastic bottle as a pot for a plant.
Are you beginning to see the problem? We cannot pitch DIY craft reuse as a solution when the materials lifespan is 5 times that of a human. It would take 15 generations of handing down to actually have "solved" that particular plastic bottle.
