@biketoglasto I Don’t need baggage pick up or campsite space . Assume ok to bring a bike and secure with you ? Can’t see how to book this in on the webpage ?
@ConnorBrady21 Great to see a fellow moorlander taking such a stand .. (I’m from brown edge originally) - so many people have left labour that I know either as councillors or members .. solidarity
I just confronted the CEO of @equinor and it’s majority shareholder, the Norwegian government, at their AGM.
The people in this room are responsible for the UK’s biggest undeveloped oil field - Rosebank.
We are no longer pleading. We will #StopRosebank

@KateRaworth@DoughnutEcon@rethinkecon I lecture on it and practice it .. I met Erinch and did a doughnut economics workshop for my ecosystem members .. I lecture on sustainability and ethics In business & have a growing consultancy in circular & regen fashion. Our ecosystem is collaborating for decentralised models
@vickysmith@SophieBenson_@ZipYardUK There will be localised groups that you might find .. here in Richmond/ London I know the go to people .. with our work in The Circle Rooms we aim to create a decentralised system for IRL locations.. it’s just tiny margins & need to have time to work into it
@vickysmith@SophieBenson_@ZipYardUK Other options are there there are some next gen taking post consumer & making cellulosic materials .. some need cotton /poly . Some take different fibers. I’m not sure how they get their feed stock yet & would think uneconomical on a one to one customer level.
@vickysmith@SophieBenson_@ZipYardUK Your best bet would be a cool upcycler . I’m working on projects more for mass upcycling of inter industry wastes . So unless we have a uniform style of waste this kind of upcycling one on one is not economical for the maker . I don’t know many that are killing it .. cont
@vickysmith@SophieBenson_@ZipYardUK there’s a possibility to compost it - however I can assume it has dyes on it - so it will be potentially toxi .. John Parkinson up in Sheffield can re-process 100% wool or cashmere knitted items from post consumer .. however not cost effective for him to pick up random items
@vickysmith@SophieBenson_@ZipYardUK Always a conundrum . Given it hasn’t been designed for deconstruction or remanufacture .. or even composting - it always has a degenerative path ., you have done the best using it for as long as you can . The next use is some kind of upcycling to design something else ..
