Happy to present @Envie_org's refurbishing and re-use of medical equipment at @intherwaste conference.

#COVID19 and global shortages of PPE showed us exactly how unresilient / unsustainable single use products are, especially in times of crises!

Put #secondhand first! ✊

[INTHERWASTE @intherwaste]

Our ongoing Final Conference session now features Anna Bergstrom of @ReTuna_Etuna, Kelly Piron of @RREUSE_Brussels, Jose Maria Garcia of @Traperos_Emaus and Carlos Perez of the Pontevedra municipality as 4 guest speakers enriching the number of good practices presented so far

After 7 hours of negotiation, a 1 hour press conf. at 10pm translated into 3 languages by 5 different ministers explaining 367 slides containing just 4 exit phases, I’m grateful for #Wilmes’ summary: “when it isn’t authorised, it isn’t allowed”.

Mic drop.

Today we present an #EUGreenDeal which will fight climate change, protect nature, make our economy sustainable and leave nobody behind.

Because if this is not a social Green Deal, it will not be a successful Green Deal.

365 long days in which much (and yet in the most frustrating sense, nothing at all) has happened. "Michael Kovrig, one year in detention in China" https://t.co/6fdOWenHdK via @YouTube @CrisisGroup #FreeMichaelKovrig #FreeMichaelSpavor

"As someone who grew up with parents who were born in the shadow of war, we are not at war with Europe, and we are not at war with each other" - former Labour leader Ed Miliband critical of Boris Johnson's language in the Commons https://t.co/vdNDrsX5YO

[Charles Michel @CharlesMichel]

To be appointed President of #EUCO is a great responsibility and a task I will fulfill with commitment.

A united #Europe with respect for national diversity is my objective.

Solidarity, freedom & mutual respect are the core of the European Union. I will uphold those values.

[Joost Hiltermann @JoostHiltermann]

Try to imagine it: 200 days in arbitrary detention without even a scrap of information about if or when you may be released. Virtually cut off from the outside world: no visits from lawyer or family. Isn't it about time, #China, to let your Canadian hostage go? #FreeMichaelKovrig

[Kelly Piron @kellypiron]

As a 'resigned Brexit Secretary who helped negotiate the deal but then voted both for and against it, and is now endorsing a #NoDeal #Brexit & recommending bypassing Parliament if necessary', I think you’ll be more to blame than the #EU.

Former Brexit Secretary @DominicRaab claims the EU will be to blame for not compromising if the UK ends up with a no-deal Brexit and WTO rules #r4today https://t.co/HLxLTFFUrx

After Jeremy Hunt says the UK’s next Prime Minister must be trustworthy, many wonder if there’s a third candidate that they’re unaware of.
