One More Use

I try to get
one more use
out of just about everything
– packaging,
clothing,
computers,
space in my home,
etc.

I use the empty potato chip bag
as a garbage bag.

I plant some radishes
in an unused corner of my yard.

I convert torn clothing
to cleaning rags.

On their own,
these one more uses
don’t save much money
or other resources.

Collectively,
however,
they have funded business start ups
in the past.

Try to get
one more use
out of everything around you.

If The Time Frame Is In Three Years Or Longer

World leaders have been promising
to take action
on climate change
at the earliest
in 2030.

That’s 7 years from now.
That leader is unlikely
to remain in their role.
The future leader
is unlikely
to keep
the past leader’s promise.

That action isn’t happening.
The world leaders know this.
They’re saying sh*t
just to get the media
off their backs
and to appease
some gullible supporters.

This is true
in business also.

If the time frame
is three years
from now
or longer,
that action
or project
isn’t happening.
