Thank you for responding. Your thoughts on prioritizing waste management are spot-on. I don't believe, however, that society as a whole forward-thinks to that degree.

I try to relax as best as possible regarding these observations. Though, I admit, it's frustrating given how naturally we are willing to return to our old devices. I appreciate the recommendation.

I see evidence of a much higher focus in the public health sector where I live. People are much more agreeable towards wearing masks. Businesses require masks where I live the way they expect people to wear shoes and shirts. It comforts me to know that people now listen.

Thank you for the engaging conversation!
