Septic systems are a great example of this on a home scale. So many people treat them as a mysterious vortex in the ground where all sewage magically vanishes. They don’t bother to pump the tank every few years because it costs a couple hundred dollars. Then they’re shocked when their leech field is completely failed and needs to be replaced to the tune of $30k.

I can't wait for (nicer) incinerating toilets to cost less than $5k. Going to put a real damper in septic tank builds in areas that allow simple graywater systems.
