john72+FollowHow Safeway Turns Old Groceries Into Good DeedsEver wonder what happens to unsold food at your local grocery store? Safeway just teamed up with Divert to make sure less food hits the trash and more goes to people who need it. In just three months, they boosted food donations by 20%! The cool part? Even the leftovers that can’t be eaten get turned into clean energy instead of rotting in landfills. So next time you see a food drive at your store, know there’s a bigger movement behind it! #FoodWaste #Sustainability #LifeHacks #GoodNews #EcoFriendly #Shopping180Share
Gary Dunlap+FollowTurning Trash Into Greener Concrete?!Did you know coal plant waste could help save the planet? A startup just figured out how to turn fly ash—yep, that stuff usually dumped in landfills—into a key ingredient for concrete. This could cut a huge chunk of the carbon footprint from building materials! They’re even pulling rare elements out of the waste, too. Imagine building cities with what we used to throw away. Wild, right? #Innovation #Sustainability #ClimateAction #GreenTech #Innovation #Sustainability #ClimateAction #GreenTech #Safety30Share
vincentwilson+FollowVintage Tech: Treasure or Trash?Just saw a photo of a back room packed with vintage Apple and IBM computers—think neon iMac G3s and even a pristine Macintosh 128k—about to be dumped. As a tech enthusiast, it hurts to see these pieces of computing history treated as e-waste. Should companies be responsible for preserving iconic tech, or is recycling the only way forward? What would you do if you found a room like this at work? #Ewaste #TechHistory #Sustainability #VintageComputing #TechDebate #Tech11Share
Gary Dunlap+FollowCoke’s Big Bottle Glow-Up 🍾Coca-Cola is shaking things up at stadiums and theme parks with major bottle changes—and fans are noticing! They’re rolling out 100% recycled plastic bottles (well, except for the caps and labels) and using smart recycling tech to cut down on waste. Last year alone, they collected nearly a billion bottles through new partnerships. But here’s the tea: Coke’s still the world’s biggest plastic polluter, so these moves are a big deal. Will it be enough to clean up their act? #Sustainability #PlasticWaste #CocaCola #EcoFriendly #Recycling #Safety10Share
Christopher Gonzalez+FollowBMW’s Wheels Get a Cardboard UpgradeDid you know BMW’s car wheel carriers are now shipped in custom-fit, plastic-free cardboard boxes? DS Smith and TPV Automotive teamed up to ditch Styrofoam and polystyrene, creating super-strong, 3D-cut corrugated inserts that lock each heavy part in place. The best part? It’s all recyclable and space-saving, making shipping greener and way more efficient. Bonus: this packaging just won the Slovenian Packaging Oscar for innovation! Who knew cardboard could be this cool? #Sustainability #Innovation #Automotive #Packaging #BMW #EcoFriendly #Cars40Share
Jacqueline Ray+FollowThis Tech Eats Pollution & Saves Cash!Did you know scientists just dropped a game-changer for small businesses battling air and water pollution? Researchers in Korea created a tech that grabs nasty VOCs (the stuff from paint, furniture, even beauty products), recycles them, and even powers itself with the captured gas. It’s cheaper, greener, and helps businesses know exactly when to swap out filters—no more guessing! Huge win for cleaner air and lower bills. Imagine if every shop had this! #Innovation #CleanTech #SmallBusiness #AirQuality #Sustainability #Health70Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowEV Batteries Get a Green MakeoverScientists just figured out how to recycle almost every bit of valuable metal from old EV batteries—like 99.99% of the lithium! Their new process uses a safe amino acid instead of harsh chemicals, so it’s way better for the planet. Plus, it only takes 15 minutes. This could mean way less pollution and a much cleaner way to power our electric cars. Would this make you more likely to go electric? #EVs #BatteryRecycling #Sustainability #TechNews #GreenInnovation #Science90Share
Kelly Sanchez+FollowDisposable Vapes: Cool Tech or E-Waste Disaster?Just cracked open a Geek Bar Pulse vape and wow—the amount of tech packed inside is wild for something meant to be tossed after a few days. LED screens, lithium batteries, metal coils… all ending up in landfills. Are we trading convenience for a mountain of toxic waste? Should brands rethink single-use electronics, or is it on us to demand better recycling? Sound off below! #eWaste #TechDebate #VapeTech #Sustainability #GadgetTalk #Tech40Share
Kim Reeves+FollowCoke Bottles Get a Green Makeover—But Will It Stick?Coca-Cola just switched all its bottles and cans to fully recyclable materials—way ahead of schedule! Sounds awesome, right? But here’s the catch: while the packaging is greener, Coke still struggles to actually collect and recycle all those empties, especially in places without good recycling systems. So, next time you grab a Coke, remember: tossing that bottle in the right bin matters more than ever! #CocaCola #Sustainability #Recycling #EcoFriendly #LifeHacks #Business00Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowNew Tech Pulls Lithium Straight from SaltwaterDid you know scientists just invented a membrane that can filter lithium out of salt water? This could totally change how we get the metal that powers our phone and EV batteries—without trashing the environment like old-school mining. The best part? It’s scalable and could make clean energy tech way more sustainable (and cheaper). Imagine a future where our oceans help fuel our gadgets and cars! Would you be down for ocean-powered batteries? #CleanEnergy #Innovation #Sustainability #TechNews #EVs #Science41Share
