"...the goals of the Action Plan are to extend the life of e-products through reuse, repair, refurbishment, and recovery to keep the value of materials in the economy for as long as possible." @LGWiseman @BrizToolLibrary #righttorepair #ewaste

It's World Book Day and almost International Women's Day - so I can't resist a shout out to many of the amazing thinkers, doers & changemakers who inspire me every day, and who just happen to be women. #WorldBookDay #IWD23

Hey @katejonesqld to solve a problem before it becomes one, how about 10-20k to give @BrizToolLibrary and/or the #SLQEdge @slqld some 3D Printer Filament recyclers to produce prototyping filament for schools and reduce PETG and PLA waste as 3D printing continues to increase?

The @BrizToolLibrary initiated by @SabrinaChakori is a great working model of alternative living styles that don’t involve growth in human impact on our fragile life support systems. medium.com/postgrowth/the-re…

"I was born into this environmental crisis. I'd rather be doing something else than talking about degrowth"

The environmental crisis is not something coming in the future. It's impacting us today.

How can we have a vibrant society without constant growth?
Even the SDG's have 'Economic Growth' as a virtue!
1. Measure what matters.
2. Change values, don't just try to produce the same things more efficiently
3. Rethink work
4. True democracy

The problem with the word #anthroprocene is that it assumes all people impact the world equally.
@SabrinaChakori says it should maybe be called the #capitalprocene
Or even the #necrocene: the age of death and extinction as a result of capitalist accumulation.

I suggest you buy a bread maker, then donate it to the @BrizToolLibrary and then get a membership and borrow it out... Save the space in your cupboard and enable the likes of me to borrow said bread maker! Hehe. Actually I'll go halves with you if you commit to this wacky plan!
