    There’s a paper mill near me, on a river, and the one and only interesting thing about it is that it discharges water that is cleaner than it takes out.

    Now, this isn’t because they just care so much, or try so hard… it’s actually because the river is so horribly polluted from other shit upstream, even after decades of cleanup projects, that doing the bare minimum is actually a net positive…

    What a shitty world we live in. It could have been so much better.
