@jfparis @quixoticgeek why's that then? Is the recycling process as bad as products that use #Terracycle, where finding the recycling box in someone's yard is like geocaching but with a lower success rate?

Two years ago, Transition group Zero Carbon Guildford moved into a former New Look high street store and transformed it into a buzzing community climate hub.

Volunteers set up a library of things, community fridge, zero waste shop, baby clothes library, business network and a vertical farm growing salad crops.

They ran cinema, quiz and open mic nights, a food waste feast along the high street, and a climate conversation group.

They trained energy advisors and citizen scientists to test the local river’s water quality, and hosted dozens of groups from other communities who wanted to create a hub just like theirs.

In two years, they reckon their projects have saved a whooping 583 tonnes of CO2 emissions from their community.

It shows how people who are concerned can come together, and have a real, tangible impact and engage whole new audiences with some volunteer power and a meantime space. It’s why they won innovative UK climate project in the Climate Coalition’s annual awards this year.

Now their lease is up, and they want to take Zero Carbon Guildford to a new home and the next level. They’ve set up a crowdfunder, hoping to find out what they could achieve with great capacity and a more permanent space.

Find out more and their advice for anyone else setting up a similar community climate hub: https://transitiontogether.org.uk/building-community-action-through-climate-hubs/

Don’t fall prey to the refrigerator water filter #scam. Filters are EXPENSIVE and only last for a few hundred gallons.

I ran a line from my reverse osmosis filter under the kitchen sink to my #refrigerator. Now I pay $50/year instead of $225 and only change filters once a year.

Plus, the money I save on filters can be used to pay for #recycling the filter media with a company like #Terracycle. I can recycle 5 years of filters for only $125, saving me $150/year overall.
