A new feature this year will be '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BookSwaps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BookSwaps</a>,' one for adults and one for children. The café has a friendly and fun ambience and combines an enjoyable family activity with a rewarding outcome."Annalise Stenekes has led the project since its inception and has gathered a dedicated and talented team of fixers who will attempt to repair a variety of items, including bicycles, lamps, home appliances, sewing machines, jewelry and audio/visual and computer equipment. Small furniture items will be repaired, clothing and footwear mended and toys given new life."Last year, 230 kilograms of items were given a new lease on life, diverting potential waste from the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/landfill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#landfill</a> and saving an estimated $1,000."'<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Repairing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Repairing</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/reusing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reusing</a> broken items, as opposed to disposing of them and purchasing new ones, is a practical and meaningful contribution we can make for our environment,' says local resident Wendy Kirk. 'The Repair Café is also a feel-good place — at times the joy is tangible when someone’s prized item is restored to its former usefulness.'"Repair Café events are happening around the world, saving money, reducing landfill waste, cutting CO2 emissions, promoting learning and fostering community connections."Source: <a href="https://www.orilliamatters.com/local-news/need-something-fixed-orillia-repair-cafe-returning-in-april-10371696" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.orilliamatters.com/local-news/need-something-fixed-orillia-repair-cafe-returning-in-april-10371696</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RepairCafesOntario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RepairCafesOntario</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RepairCafes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RepairCafes</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BuildingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BuildingCommunity</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SolarPunkSunday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SolarPunkSunday</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FixIt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FixIt</a>

Alexander HanffSo found a use for my old iPhone - now using it as a continuity camera. Currently I keep the charging cable connected so the camera doesn't die mid conference call but eventually this will lead to issues with the battery.Sadly Apple has built their phones in such a way as the power supply will only work if there is a battery installed - which frankly, is rather stupid when it comes to re-using old hardware.<a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/sustainability" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#sustainability</a> <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/recycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#recycling</a> <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/reusing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#reusing</a>
