Dear SDO,
Sometimes you get the bear and sometimes the bear gets you. Such is life, but the erratic, non-linear nature of progress doesn’t stop our efforts for promoting and implementing sustainable, circular economy solutions.
Read below for the newest addition to the Okapi Reusable Cup network, an update on Green Bexley’s reusable container program, a CORC/The Story of Stuff Project reuse advocacy event, and the Reuse Act of 2025. As you can see, we are moving forward on multiple fronts!
Starting with this newsletter, we are moving the quote of the month to the top of the newsletter. For inspiration this month, please consider:
Now I don't know but I was told
In the heat of the sun a man died of cold
Do we keep on coming or stand and wait
With the sun so dark and the hour so late?
Robert Hunter, “New Speedway Boogie”
Given the choice, I think we keep on coming, right?
- Doug Calem, CORC Founder and Co-Director
