'Be futureproof, gebruik 'watertap in Maps!: Herbruikbare flessen zijn de toekomst. Virginia Yanquilevich, CEO van Dopper, deelde tijdens onze laatste aflevering inspirerende inzichten over #gedragsverandering en waterbewustzijn: 💡

👉 “75% van de mensen die een Dopper hebben, gebruiken die ook écht. En bijvullen? Dat kan supermakkelijk – zoek gewoon op ‘watertap’ in Google Maps.”

💦 Wist je dat 95% van de Europese kranen veilig drinkwater levert? Er is dus eigenlijk geen #excuus meer om plastic waterflessen te blijven kopen.

Maar wereldwijd is het contrast pijnlijk:
😥 “1 op de 4 mensen heeft géén toegang tot schoon drinkwater. Voor hen is plastic vaak de enige optie. Dat is een heel ander probleem – en een schrijnend voorbeeld van mondiale #ongelijkheid.”
En hoe zit het met Nederland?

🧠 Virginia: “Het hebben van een herbruikbare fles maakt je nog geen ambassadeur van onze #missie. Daarom doen we ook onderzoek naar gedrag. Gebruiken mensen die fles écht? Gelukkig: 75% van de Dopper-bezitters doet dat. Die flessen liggen niet ongebruikt in een laatje.” 🗄️

📍 Goed te weten dus: via Google Maps kun je onderweg eenvoudig bijvulpunten vinden. Zoek op ‘watertap’ en blijf gezond – zonder wegwerpplastic.

"There are various non-mystical reasons why fossil fuels remain more profitable than renewables...Not all these things are necessarily set in stone for all time in such a way that it’s inconceivable renewables will ever compete with fossil fuels. But you’d expect an in-depth academic treatment of climate & energy futures to engage with them properly, rather than unfurling strange arguments about free energy & sunflowers."

Overshoot, meet undershoot Chris Smaje, originally published by Small Farm Future April 2, 2025 A lot of people have a peculiar horror for the idea of a lower energy and more local world, necessarily involving more people working the land – whereas the idea of living in a suburb and working in an office tends to get a free pass. I think there will be more of the former and less of the latter in the future whether we like it or not, but it’s a bit odd that our culture is so resistant to the possibility that the former might have its plus points.

Malm and Carton’s term ‘bourgeois economics’ to describe mainstream economic orthodoxy is revealing in this respect. Implicitly, this sees the problem as merely the dominance of economic thought by a particular class perspective that can be overcome by more accurate scientific analysis. That’s a really old kind of social science thinking that I don’t think is at all equal to present problems, and in fact is a part of them – the slippage from the idea of scientific truth to the idea of a scientific understanding of human society that generates the correct political prescriptions for it."

'A new method to recycle wind turbine blades without using harsh chemicals resulted in the recovery of high-strength glass fibers and resins that allowed Washington State University researchers to re-purpose the materials to create stronger plastics.

The innovation provides a simple and environmentally friendly way to recycle wind turbine blades to create useful products.'

Instead of going to a Hands Off protest tomorrow I'm resisting consumerism & supporting our environment by donating lots of stuff to Zero Waste Tucson, a community-driven movement that aims to promote sustainable consumption & production practices. Donated items are reused/repaired/refurbished/resold/recycled, helping our circular economy.

"Keynes saw greed as a necessary evil that could power enough economic growth to pull all people out of poverty, at which point we could compost the money motive and enjoy the fruits of its often cruel labors.

Some of those benefits have come to pass, and yet poverty persists... We are undermining the...conditions that have allowed human life to thrive. We are fouling our nest, creating a “Craposcene.”

Crapitalism: Psychoanalysis and the Profit Motive James Rowe, originally published by The Arrow April 3, 2025 Moving from cultures of greed to cultures of gratitude requires institutional change, but it also requires that we look inwards, gently put our infantile wishes to bed, and wake up to this rich earth, with its soils made healthy by shit and decay. Featured Image of an open toilet in a field of dry brown flowers - Credit: Unsplash "Capitalism is a complex system, and changing it will require diverse strategies that work on multiple scales. The psychoanalytic approach warns that failing to address the psychic drivers of greed will limit any strategy’s effectiveness. Those of us in the Anglosphere who lack the cultural resources honed by the Haudenosaunee and other Indigenous peoples need to find ways of respectfully learning from them (in Braiding Sweetgrass, Robin Wall Kimmerer argues that Indigenous people all share “cultures of gratitude”).10 The health of our bodies, societies, and planetary nest hinges, I think, on our ability to collectively answer this question: What narratives and practices can help us compost the infantile wishes for omnipotence that are turning the world to shit?"
