I wish we had infrastructure to do that at a mass level and reduce the waste. And I don’t just mean goodwill and donation shops, but a whole system to accept discarded things or consignments, clean and repair everything, eliminates any infestations and infections (or destroy it if impossible), filter out the junk (or send it to another station to be disassembled into parts if anything is salvageable, or into scrap materials if not).

Also ban disposable plastic that can’t be usefully recycled, as well as ones that are intended for longer terms but degrade (some get sticky, some “sweat” who knows what liquid), and make all parts (plastic or otherwise) open source and public IP if the producer no longer wishes to produce them.
