Kia ora! Transitioning from academia to industry after PhD and 4+ years postdoc developing algorithms and open-source bioinformatics software. As so many of us here, I love solving complex and hard problems and learning new things. I am looking for software engineering or research scientist roles in any interesting domain. Where I would shine most is if it is related to optimization, algorithm development, data analysis, or operations research.


Ask for an certain percentag of recycled plastic in every new plastic product. Increase said percentage over time.


That's a good way increase the value. I believe now it's just not profitable to do all the sorting. Maybe it would become viable if everyone had to incorporate a portion of recycled plastic and there was this sudden demand.


"The new research shows that without meat and dairy consumption, global farmland use could be reduced by more than 75% – an area equivalent to the US, China, European Union and Australia combined – and still feed the world." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/may/31/avoiding...


I think this was meant as a suggestion, I've also never seen this happen. However, I am wondering why and so may I ask why you do not want to be mentioned as reviewer on a paper, maybe even with your review?


This. Besides "diamond open access" some in the open access community try to establish the "fair open access principles" [1]. For a journal to comply to these principles means that they are owned by the scholarly community, free for authors and readers, authors retain copyright, and any other costs paid by the journal to a publisher are low and reasonable. We have started to put up a network for journals that follow these principles with the "Free Journal Network" [2] to promote and support each other.

Concerning other comments on funding, I wanted to add that some journals don't need much money (hosting is basically free, workload shared well by editorial board). On the other hand funding can and does come from universities and their libraries (money not spend on subscriptions), research institutions, museums, and donations (sometimes seen as volountary APCs by those who have the money from grants).
