Certainly all of those Rs are legitimate strategies to address the problem. As a first step, I'd like to get the parties responsible for that to pay the full cost so they can pick the right R for the right solution. Maybe I should reuse this. Maybe I shouldn't use this plastic at all. Maybe I should redesign the product.
These Rs become a strategy once you've said you can't pollute for free anymore. You can't just dispose of this stuff; you have to take it back and recycle it. That poses a cost, and that cost then induces a decision-making process. I've seen it happen: Where I want to avoid this cost, I think I might have to redesign this, change it or something else.
