You might recall how my iMac died a while back and I was forced onto a repurposed trash can computer.

Well, I've decided to basically get rid of the desktop and build my own tabbed desktop GUI.

I have very few needs really.

Our next Repair Club is all about buttons, patches and simple clothing repairs.

Bring along one or two clean items that need a button replaced or a small hole patched. We will practise basic hand sewing, adding patches, and look at visible versus invisible mending all in a friendly, beginner-focused session.

Led by TOG member @triploidtree

📅 Wednesday 22 July, 7:30–9pm

reduce, repair, reuse, recycle T-shirt

Scientist and Philosopher’s third design (V3B) on reducing consumption and loading on the environment.

Our environmental and exploitative footprint of the Earth’s nature and natural resources and of other human beings is destroying the very fabric by which we live and depend on. Yet countless numbers of individuals especially in first world countries are either ignorant or just don’t care about the damage caused by their lifestyles.  

Check out how these products are made using organic cotton. We need to live in not just a sustainable way but one that causes the least environmental loading on the planet. You can even send these items back to be made into new things when you have finished with them. (S&P)

This T-shirt is available from our Teemill store, https://scientistandphilosopher.com/product/reduce-repair-reuse-recycle-v3b/.

Our Teemill produced organic cotton products are ethically, environmentally and ecologically produced. They are recyclable, sustainable, stylish, high quality fashion items.
