In much of the developed world, waste is out of sight and out of mind. The world generates around 2 billion tons of #municipal #solid #waste #annually, with at least 33% of it #not #managed in an #environmentally #safe #manner, according to a 2018 World Bank report. Though high-income countries only account for 16% of the world’s population, they generate about 34% of the world’s waste each year. A third of all 3food produced is wasted and ends up in the garbage can. 3Plastic waste is another mounting issue: Across the globe, #less than 10% of it is #recycled, according to the most recent data from 2018 published by the #Organization for #Economic #Cooperation and #Development. Plastic waste has more than doubled globally since 2000.

Why people think Singaporeans like to grumble a lot. 🙂

"SINGAPORE: Some say Singaporeans complain more than anyone else. And when it comes to municipal issues, OneService can put a number on it – 1.7 million.

That is how many complaints Singapore residents submit in one year to the government-run app that collects feedback on estate problems."

This article is an interesting peek into #municipal #lobbying but stay aware of the obviously grandiose sales pitch at the end 🙄

Using #greywater has been technologically available and many people clandestinely use their laundry#water in their gardens. Glad to see this is finally happening at a #municipal level. #CleanWater https://www.yesmagazine.org/environment/2023/07/11/water-recycling?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=YESDaily_20230724&utm_content=YESDaily_20230724+CID_7263ae0086487193df81fc260785bd9b&utm_source=CM&utm_term=Read%20the%20story

As I've fucked off and changed #jobs maybe it's time for a new #introduction again.

Basically I'm #Swedish Chaos Goblin well into my 30's. I'm a #transgender, #asexual #aromantic #non-binary individual. I perfer ze/zir as pronouns (even if they/them is ok). You can expect kinda a lot of chaos, tech, shitposts and memes from this account.

I work as a #systech at a #municipal trying to manage over 30k users and something like 500 servers.

A thing I've learned:
Educating my fellow public sector employees about organized labor took years and great patience. This is because it's not teaching new concepts. It is, instead, helping liberals like myself unlearn the mythology of worker-employer harmony.

Then, the employer did something dumb and the result was the most satisfying effort of my life. I helped organize hundreds.

I think the most important and impactful result that will come out of this "China Influencing Canadian Politicians” story will be at the local/municipal level. That’s really where this whole thing started when councillors/mayors refused to go to the China-hosted UBCM parties while they had the two Michaels in custody.

#Yesterday & #Today #History:
1923 Judge E.R. Burgess, Racine #Municipal #Wisconsin #Court fined #traffic law violators for #speeding by making them walk 30 or 60 or 90 days.

Today #Switzerland has highest speeding fines in the world with largest reported as $290K for #driving 137km/h (85mph) in a 80Km/h (50mph) zone.

Yesterday it was so nice out that I made a point of taking a walk.
I noticed this sign and it made me wonder if it was correct. The number still works. But I don't think the #boston #municipal #police are responsible for the parking lot of your three unit rental property.
