The community repair project aims to address the problem of electronic waste, which could also help solve the global warming of the planet.
The emerging pilot session is followed in Wembley and a ‘fixing factory’ in Kentish Town in 179 Queens Crescent directed by two climatic beneficial organizations, possible and the restart project.
Hackney’s “fixing factory” has been established in 4 lane dispensaries in the close way, outside Mare Street.
The idea solves broken electrics and shows basic repair skills, all to change indulgent consumerism towards an economy of “repair”, as well as our grandparents and their war shortage of the duration of the duration of the mentality of “doing and repairing.”
“We want to have an ‘arrangement factory’ on each main street,” said Shelini Kotecha of the beneficial reset organization. “Making repairs should be ‘the norm’ so that people fix their electricity instead of throwing them.”
Follow the emerging window “Repair Café” in Willesden in 2022 when 100 people appeared to have repaired articles by volunteer repairers who address our “throw” society. Café was part of an ‘Green Barrios’ action plan for Willesden and Kingsbury to reduce waste.
A woman who entered was Jyotika Patel, who brought a radio from her home in Wembley to look. It was a gift from his late mom.
Jyotika recalled: “He remembered Mom every time he played the radio, but unfortunately he broke a few years ago. He kept the radio simply thought it was.” He fixed it in just a few minutes. ”
Read so brought an adorned garment that he bought 20 years ago with his buttons. She had been sitting in a home closet in Dollis Hill for years until a Track Charity volunteer helped her sew new buttons to give her a new life opportunity.
Great Britain is the second highest producer on the planet for ‘e-disgust’ by the head of its population, beneficial organizations point out. This is because there is a lack of local repair workshops for appliances or knowing how to solve them.
Therefore, a new generation of ‘Factories’ fixing’ is opening to show how to repair things and give broken devices a second useful life to save money, while it helps to reduce by not having to buy new items for the consumer when you can ‘do’.
The repair sessions so far have saved three tons of electronic waste and 53 tons of CO2 in the last two years in northern London.
