Online genbrugsnetværk

HTMP kan oplagt enten understøtte eksisterende genbrugsnetværk som fx FREECYCLE, som har 525 medlemmer i Kbh (en lille gruppe: FREECYCLE har 4.831 grupper med 6.603.614 medlemmer globalt= – eller oprette sin egen lignende service.
Lad folk udveksle genbrugsvarer og spar ressourcer!

Eksempel på unik genbrugskoncept.....

Worn Again Virgin

WORN AGAIN VIRGIN is a unique range of bags made out of old Virgin Atlantic seat covers and other ingredients, including car seat belts, post-Glastonbury tents and bicycle inner tubes.

Worn Again is working with Virgin Atlantic to meet its goal to halve the waste it sends to landfill by 50% by 2012.

The airline has successfully reduced the waste it produces in its offices and ground operations significantly and is working hard to reduce the waste it produces in the air.

A total of 2000 limited edition bags have been produced with materials from approximately 1000 seats.

WORN AGAIN VIRGIN bags are all hand made in family run and small scale workshops in Portugal. Because they are made from recycled materials no two products are exactly the same.

VF kan lave IT-platforme til borgernes genbrug

"Genbrugs-børsen" - et slags Blå Avis for genbrug er en oplagt service for VF. Denne kan køres på flere platform. Se fx:
Local Reuse (to view it, you have to have access to the iTunes Store) is a free iPhone application that allows users to receive and donate free reusable items. The aim is to keep useful items out of landfills.

LCA meta studie fra DTU

There is little doubt that recycling is good for the environment. In 2006 the Technical University of Denmark conducted a review of 272 studies comparing the effects of recycling with those of landfilling or incineration. They came up with 188 scenarios involving different materials and recycling methods. In 83% of these scenarios recycling proved the greener of the available options.
The aim of the study has been to identify and critically review existing LCA studies covering
alternative waste management options for a selection of seven waste categories of particular
significance to the recycling sector: paper/cardboard, plastics, glass, wood, steel, aluminium
and aggregates. The methodology can be readily adapted to further materials in the future.
