That’s a good question, what do you suggest I research to find out what to do for myself? I’m thinking about starting my own recycling business in the future, but that’s about it.

I would work that many hours a week as long as I got paid +$1 million a year. Otherwise, it would just make more sense to start my own business.

To start a benefit corporation I don’t need be in a position of power. I will eventually need investor money though to scale.

I appreciate your recycling efforts. I’m in Chicago where recycling rates are horrible. I’m building a plan to improve recycling rates for next year, but I still have a lot of work to do in terms of the system regarding transparency and user-friendliness.

Yea this is a good point. I think bicycles should be required to have some lights at least to make them more visible to drivers.

Nope, I read the description pretty clearly “A place to discuss problems of car centric infrastructure or how it hurts us all.”

My question stems from the fact that certain areas expect cyclists to share the road with cars while drivers are protected by higher safety standards, and cyclists are exposed to a higher level of danger.

Yea I guess it comes to the infrastructure, I’m in Chicago and we seriously need more REAL bike lanes, not something just painted on the road. I see drivers doing crazy shit all the time swerving into bike lanes almost hitting cyclists. I’m just really still confused about the logic of forcing cyclists to ride on the road where there are no bike lanes while the side walks are wide enough for them.

Safety standards like seat belts, airbags, turn signals, brake lights. Things that protect the individual operating the vehicle.

That makes sense, so why aren’t bikes allowed on the side walk? Based on your argument.

I bought a used Chevrolet Bolt '23 which is the closest I could get, they’re still relatively cheap and mine has been working great.
