I like it.

I think we can do better, but your suggestion is accessible, and affordable.

It does NOT scale without behavioral change, but what does, really?

Yeah it's why I didn't suggest it initially lol. It's cute and people should do it if they can, but it's like at-home composting and rainwater collection. I appreciate everyone who does it and we should encourage more but it's not realistic to expect everyone will do it.

Would love to see it improved upon, and combine with other methods to get a good waste management solution that isn't just built on dreams and lies.

Yep. Yep yep yep.

I love the idea of weaponizing mycelia or animals to help us save the planet we're all on.

But we threw it out, and we're going to have to help pick it up.
