Exactly. Let me tell a little story: I manage a machine shop that is a major supplier of valve shafts for ball valves used in oil and gas refineries. Our customer is the worlds largest supplier of valves and regulators, and we supply them. They have very specific material demands and their preferred source of material…
That may effect our company as a whole, but not my facility. All our process waste is chopped, baled, and sent to another plant of ours that makes plates, cafeteria trays, cupholders, and the like out of fiber.

Yep. Michael, don’t think for a minute you aren’t making a difference. I know you write to show and expose. But it does resonate. It has opened my eyes. Glad to be alienated and left out. Not going to quietly think it’s enough to sit and say nothing any longer.
