In order to cut back garbage generation, moving towards large packs of everything.

This is dry yeast. Used to buy them in 5g packs that were wrapped in 4 pack plastic , but now I'm using a 500g container instead. It's metal with plastic lid that fits most of my other containers after it's done.

One step at a time to move towards 0 waste!

Repairing Society. Xiaodong MA (Andy).

Le siècle dernier nous a apporté un gaspillage de produits sans précédent, causé par une production excessivement jetable et une surconsommation. L'accès à tous ces biens ne s'est pas traduit par une augmentation du bonheur des gens ; au contraire, ce mode de vie moderne a rendu les consommateurs émotionnellement détachés des produits.
Repairing Society vise à cultiver un attachement émotionnel plus fort entre les objets et les êtres humains en créant un environnement de "réparation et non de remplacement".

Recycling the World’s Batteries | Emma Nehrenheim | TED

Battery recycling pioneer Emma Nehrenheim. While batteries are fundamental topowering a sustainable future, their production is surprisingly harsh on the environment.She lays out the science behind a breakthrough in recycling a battery’s core elements, offering a manufacturing solution that could vastly reduce the industry’s environmental impact.

Couldn't find a small sofa whtin my budget and can't carry the second hand ones 6 floor up, so made one from wood pallets and cushions I found in the recycling bin of our apartment complex.

Just need to add a few more wood on the back, sand it, paint it and have it ready to be my thrown in the coming weeks and months!

Total cost 6 euros for long screws.!

Another day, Another experiment trying to see what gives me the best hydroponic results growing Tiny Tim Cherry Tomatoes!

Used the last 2 water bottles I had saves. Glued their 2 caps together and made a big hole through the 2.

Painted the full 5L bottle with black paint and covered it with aluminum foil, made a hole on the side and solved in a USB water pump (from the many many items I had bought to bring to Ghana many years ago) and cut the other bottle's too 30% and screwed the 2 together.

The water pump is right now connected to power plug, and slowly pushes water up to the top that is filled with mix of 10% perlites and 90% vermiculite, covered on the top with clay balls.

The plant is one of the last surviving tiny Tim tomatoes I had and wasn't growing well inside the IKEA växer system for some reason.

So I will be testing this, and other system compare the taste, number of tomatoes produced and maybe the cost of fertilizer.

I just need my ass to sit down and write the code for ESP32 system to control all of these using solar panel or else it will be wires all over the place.

Not it's time to relax and enjoy the last beer I brought back from Sweden!

It took a really long time, but they are finally starting to grow !

Cut top off because it was getting really tall and skinny, I was expecting it to start growing pretty quickly after removal but it took about 2 months for it to grow.

Now I will have to replace it from it's old 2L coca-cola bottle (from my last job) into a 5L one and maybe even sell them because I have too many right now.

I just realized these bottles make a great water bottle after they are empty. They are made out of metal and the top lid is good for a while before it breaks. A water bottle of that size are hard to find and pretty expensive.
