The End (of Windows 10) is nigh! On 14 October, #Microsoft will end support for #Win10, turning hundreds of millions of computers that cannot upgrade to #Win11 into security risks and #eWaste. Yours may be one of them! You can make your current one fast and secure again! endof10.org/press

Mommy brag moment : We just found out that my oldest son won third prize for a university grant for his work in collecting and recycling e-waste this past year. I'm really proud of him and his dedication to doing the right thing! #parenting #ewaste #environment

“Tightrope: Behind the Processor #5.” 2023, Elias Sime, SJ Museum of Art. “He’s transforming outmoded technology into … #poems to the present.” —James Cohan. More info=alt text. #Januarty #green #nail #woven #recycling #mixedmedia #abstract #contemporaryart #technology #Ewaste #art #sciart #tech

Detail: Where do our old computers go? Here is a large-scale abstract mixed-media wall art piece by artist Elias Sime. It’s a tapestry made of woven and layered reclaimed electrical wires that are tightly wound and braided, then nailed to a panel. Obsolete circuit boards make a border. Colors are mostly green with gold, purple, turquoise. Sime creates his work by recycling e-waste that he finds at the Menalesh Tera (translated as “what do have?”) open-air markets in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. He learned the braiding technique from local women, who then collaborated with him. See a fascinating video: “Elias Sime – Tightrope.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7Vm8JXYQ3E&list=PLg9bohYNTKk4kJwapygHlkIk-RW0Z-711&index=2

Friends living in NOVA SCOTIA: He only has 5 responses from Nova Scotia so far. Would you be able to take the survey and share with others in Nova Scotia? I realize it's a smaller province, but he is really hoping to get feedback from NS as part of his survey. #CdnPoli #Canada #climate #ewaste

Dr. Hello Bonjour @hellobonjour.bsky.social

Teen climate activist (my son) needs Canadians to respond to a 2-minute survey to help him build data to bring to local Cdn politicians to urge them to make it easier for Canadians to donate used electronics for reuse (after wiped clean) and recycling. Pls share: marketing4health.formaloo.me/b8j3vp

The EU is revising its electronic waste law, and the stakes couldn't be higher. #Ewaste keeps growing, and critical raw materials locked inside our old devices are never recovered. #Recycling alone won't fix it. Here is what Europe needs to cut strategic dependencies: eeb.org/en/library/n...
