... waste. I hate this world we have created where all is cheap so people think it has no value and where everything is easily bought, so can as easily be thrown away. These are some of the screws that came under the hoover and I picked them up for them, although I doubt they will be used again, what with the nail- and the screwguns, which incidentally produce a fair amount of plastic waste. This goes on every day in myriads of places... but I still remember on my first and only visit to Dublin

... when I cane across a flea market in a small neighbourhood and some people had a little makeshift box-table and were selling individual rusty nuts, bolts & so on. It did make a huge impression on me as I still think about it from time to time. At the time it made me wonder about poverty, nowadays about waste and what efficiency really means because it certainly ain't this speedy (literally) terra bruciata rush towards climate disaster ... #climatediary #waste #nonrenewbles
