  1. Sustainability win! ♻️ 🌟 This week, me and my partner successfully replaced a broken laptop screen (fall damage) on a 5 year old HP probook laptop. It was a little fiddly but NOT HARD TO DO, and the replacement screen (~120€) was the only cost involved. Seriously, if you can operate a screwdriver and have some fine motor skills, you can do this.

    We couldn't have done it without videos on YouTube though, so thank you to everyone who has ever uploaded a video of a repair! We have replaced this laptop's keyboard last winter, so this is the second repair. It works like a charm and hopefully will last many more years!

    If you read this, share a recent repair or sustainability win of yours, I'd love to celebrate with you! 🎉

  6. Mended my husband's canvas lunch bag using a scrap of cotton twill fabric and organic cotton thread. Taking care of our possessions and keeping them in service for as long as possible is an easy way to make a positive environmental impact.

  7. > "It’s still in the early stages of people recognizing that this was a thing, as is the case with slave reparations," Norwood says. "We do need to recognize and account for what it means to be the beneficiaries of that money and what that changes about our obligations to the rest of the people in society, including people who were harmed by it."

  8. Sunday morning #careandrepair — trying to prolong the life of a pair of Uggs I am emotionally attached to I’ve had them for so long. One has hole and the suede is cracking so trying to figure out how to repair that. #Sustainabilitygoals
