Two and a half months of loose plastic items packed inside a 1L milk bottle.

I've cut back my plastic use by almost 90%, using washable rags, washing brush, cutton bags and glass containers instead of single use plastic, washing sponge and shopping bags.But still have a long way to go.

Since they don't recycle many of these items in France, I shove them in milk bottles before throwing them in the recycle bin.

Energy Company Converts Old Wind Turbine Into a Tiny Home

Vattenfall, a Swedish energy company, and Superuse, an international design studio based in Rotterdam, have teamed up to repurpose an old, decommissioned wind turbine into a tiny home.

In a new project on display for Dutch Design Week running from October 19-27, Vattenfall set out to showcase circular solutions in the wind energy sector. It worked with Superuse to convert an old wind turbine that had been operating for 20 years in Austria.

The house spans 4 meters wide, 10 meters long, and 3 meters tall, and as part of its mission to achieve a fossil fuel-free future, Vattenfall equipped this tiny home with eco-friendly components including solar panels, a heat pump and a solar water heater. The project was designed by Superuse and developed by Blade-Made, a spin-off of Superuse, and Woodwave.

When Is “Recyclable” Not Really Recyclable? When the Plastics Industry Gets to Define What the Word Means.

Companies whose futures depend on plastic production are trying to persuade the federal government to allow them to put the label “recyclable” on plastic shopping bags and other items virtually guaranteed to end up in landfills and incinerators.

Someone else already posted this, but I wanted the big picture.

Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare

Linux AI Free

And Linux is also the perfect way to get another decade of useful and secure productivity from those 240+ million PC’s people are expected to just junk because they “don’t meet Windows 11 requirements” and previous versions of Windows are left to rot.

I broke my old laptop and bought a similar one that came with the surprising touchscreen.

Tried to sell the old one for repair, but the highest bid I got was 70 euros

Decided to sell it in pieces, sold the NVME SSD, External battery, internal battery and french Azerty keyboard separately and they are all gone, I have got 78 euros and still have the screen and couple of other pieces for sale. So I am guessing I will end up going even and got my memory upgraded to 32GB and dual front camera and touchscreen as bonus.

It's amazing how happy people are buying them at "low cost" compared to new specially the guy who bought the international battery andi helped him replace the old one for free (got a cup of coffee for the work), he even sent me a tank you note after he left for family vacation with the my 2 old batteries that last about 6h on his laptop (compared to less than 2 that he was getting before.

And for me, I no longer feel bad about breaking my old computer:) I really wish the guy who bought the keyboard had a QWERTY keyboard so we could exchange. But his keyboard was German which is harder for me to use than the Azerty one I have right now.

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".
