Living on an old farm in rural #Lithuania, fixing it up in the hope of having found a place to call home. Used to live on a sailboat, cruising Med & Atlantic while repairing the boat. Before that, the usual computer/network/electronics jobs. Prefer to #DIY, repair and re-use things. Mano Lietuviškai kalba yra blogai.

Underway, #Knirps spotted this tractor and demanded we rescue it, so I pulled it out and chucked it in the trunk.
Going to need some cleanup and repairs, I think.

Ich war gerade Elektrobastelschrott (d.h. bei mir tatsächlich nur stofflich verwertbar) zum Mömbriser Recyclinghof "Klinger" bringen und was erblicken meine müden Augen dort? Sollte das wohl tatsächlich ein neuer "Tausch-Tisch" für noch funktionierende Elektrogeräte sein?
🤣 weit gefehlt... natürlich nicht! Auf Nachfrage klärt sich schnell: der ist nur für Leute, die nicht wissen, in welchen der 3 Container ihr Gerät gehört (die mit eingebauten Akkus müssen extra)

#BuzzBallz are unrecyclable, and claims to the contrary are #greenwashing say recycling experts
"The company behind the bright, pre-mixed cocktails that have taken Gen Z by storm said they were recyclable on its website, but experts say this is not true.
BuzzBallz cannot be recycled as the PET plastic ball cannot be separated from the aluminium lid, global environmental action body WRAP said."
I do think the need some sort of legislation to stop people launching consumer products in new types of packaging that can't be recycled by existing infrastructure, and will in fact mess up existing recycling systems with cross contamination.

I’m in the process of rebranding and don’t have business cards at the moment.
So for tomorrow’s Open House market at Headrow House, Leeds I’ve cut up some lino misprints and stuck a label with my details on the back so they don’t go to waste!
Grab some tape and visit me at markets enough times and you might be able to construct a free complete misprint of your own… 🧩

Another misprint cut up and recycled into business cards!
At this point I’m just putting off getting proper cards printed because I enjoy making these so much 😛

"Europas führendes Batterierecycling-Startup – hat seine erste industrielle Demonstrationsanlage in Deutschland in Betrieb genommen, die erstmals in großem Maßstab Altbatterien in heimische Lithium-, Graphit- und Nickel-Kobalt-Gemische umwandeln kann.
tozero beginnt mit der Produktion von Lithium und anderen wichtigen Rohstoffen für die Energieunabhängigkeit Europas: Die in nur sechs Monaten errichtete industrielle Demonstrationsanlage stellt eine der bislang schnellsten Skalierungen im Bereich des Batterierecyclings dar.
Die in Bayern im Chemiepark Gendorf gelegene Anlage wurde in einer Rekordzeit von sechs Monaten errichtet und kann jährlich mehr als 1 500 Tonnen Batterieabfälle verarbeiten." #EU #Deutschland #Bayern #Gendorf #tozero #Recycling #Lithium #Batterie https://www.chemie.de/news/1188451/ein-wendepunkt-fuer-europas-rohstoffsouveraenitaet-tozero-startet-produktion-von-lithium-und-anderen-kritischen-rohstoffen.html

The EU now bans large companies from destroying unsold clothes and shoes, requiring resale, donation, or reuse before disposal. ♻️
The Ecodesign rules aim to cut waste, conserve resources, and improve product circularity, with medium-sized firms covered from 2030. 🌍

EU verbietet Vernichtung unverkaufter Kleidung - wie wirksam ist das?
Ab heute dürfen große Unternehmen unverkaufte Kleidung und Schuhe nicht mehr einfach so vernichten. Die EU will dadurch Ressourcen schonen und Textilmüll reduzieren. Doch es gibt Zweifel, ob das gelingt. Von Aeneas Rooch.

This New Process Turns Plastic Trash Into Clean Fuel Instead of Pollution

Japan has developed a method to recover up to 90% of lithium from used EV batteries
"At the heart of the process is a clever chemical tweak; instead of using standard sodium hydroxide, the team swapped in recovered lithium hydroxide during recycling, which is a white powder. This helps convert battery waste, known as ‘black mass’, into high-purity lithium that can be reused in new batteries. Even better, the process isn’t just efficient, it’s better for the environment too, because researchers say it can cut carbon emissions by around 40 percent compared to conventional recycling techniques."

I'm trying to discover whether 6PPD is used in making bike tyres. Considering what it improves, one would assume yes?
I find this page curious in that it discusses a toxic substance from tyres, then at the bottom is a link advertising how they carpet the ground under childrens play structures with... ground up car tyres...
For now I'll avoid squeezing my bike tyres and wash hands whenever it becomes necessary...
