It's the 50th of that album this year.
See if your local planetarium is doing the show. It is something else. 10/10 would recommend.

Terry's distance counts for double compared to the rest of us.
I think an easier solution would be cost neutral mandated storage of expended batteries. This would happen in 4 phases:
- Upon purchase, there is a tax/free to cover transport and storage costs, and a deposit relative to battery size/improper disposal impact
- Once expended, the batteries are returned to the closest local centre. Deposit is returned to the customer.
- From the local centres, batteries are collected and stored, potentially long term. This cost is captured in the tax/fee.
- Battery recyclers can purchase the expended batteries for the cost of only the tax/fee and deposit. This could potentially be reimbursed based on % of battery recycled, but I don't think that is economically necessary.
Basically a combination of a bottle deposit and a tire fee. It ensures batteries have a safe space to be stored until such time as it is economically viable to recycle them.
As recycling becomes more economical, recyclers might start to purchase direct from consumers, removing state involvement from the loop.
My understanding is that (at least in Canada) a high number of interface fires are human caused.
I wonder if this is a dreadmill situation in that building in the WUI can increase the chances of more interface fires, beyond just the impact of them.
I think suggestion 3 is the least emotionally painful one to implement. We already have different insurance rates, and uninsurability, for flood plains; a similar tool for WUI should be simple?
Edit: while not intentional, my punny username choice aligns beautifully with my first comment.
