    Welcome to the $0 Runway.
    Who needs Paris or Milan when you have a backyard, a recycling bin, and enough confidence to walk in high-heeled bricks? Today, Let's bring "Trashion" to the farm. Watch how to transform everyday farm waste—tires, cables, and even wife and dog—into the most "fabulous" couture you’ve ever seen.

  2. #Toronto - #REmarket

    St. Lawrence Market Tent, the Esplanade and Market Street.

    "The #SLNA #WasteReduction Group is holding its 15th REmarket, a two day event for #donations, #recycling services, & limited household #HazardousWaste drop offs.

    A totally free market (#FreeMarket) will also be held on February 11 only. Guests can donate and/or take items for free (not for commercial resale). Bring your own bag.

    On February 12, #RepairCaféToronto will be fixing clothing, jewellery, computers, home electronics, small appliances, housewares, and toys, while #CultureLInk #BikeHub will be doing small bike repairs and safety check.

    NEW THIS TIME- they are collecting metal keys, and wooden chopsticks."

  4. Because I adore things like this. 😊

    "We could be producing #concrete that's 30 percent stronger by processing and adding charred #CoffeeGrounds to the mix, researchers in #Australia discovered."

    Every year the world produces a staggering 10 billion kilograms (22 billion pounds) of #coffee #waste globally. Most ends up in #landfills."

    This could be the answer to so many problems at once: how to dispose of #OrganicWaste / #FoodWaste, reduce contributions to #landfill sites (& the accompanying #GreenhouseGases produced as it decays), reduce the extraction of #sand from river beds & banks around the world, thus preserving our finite natural resources, and so much more.

    "The researchers cautioned that they still need to assess the long term durability of their cement product. They're now working on testing how the hybrid coffee-cement performs under freeze/thaw cycles, water absorption, abrasions and many more stressors" - but still, it's exciting! 😃

  5. People who follow me will know that #wastereduction is one issue that deeply concerns me. So I am delighted to share this cool can and bottle rack for Dutch #deposit ( #statiegeld ) #bottles that I spotted at #Amersfoort train station. You can safely leave cans and bottles outside the bins to give other people a chance to collect them and take them back to the stores. I really like this solution and hope that we will see this more often in the future. #Pfandflaschen #recycling
