The local sewage treatment plan ought to be a required field trip for HS students in urban schools.

A nearby city bans the use of plastic drinking straws by food vendors during their yearly week long rodeo because apparently too many of them end up in the storm drain where they create dams and blockages that cost serious money to remove.

Yes.

I don’t believe in ‘anthropogenic’ climate change; but I definitely worry about pollution.

(I think field trips to local family farms should be required, too. Kids need to know where their food comes from, and something about the people who bring it to their tables. They couldn’t ‘see’ much at a big industrial farm; but at a family farm, they’d get a clue.)
