Nice to see a company spinning up new embedded computers by repurposing old smarphones.
Makes sense they'd be partnering with Fairphone. I've pondered reusing old phones as part of new products off and on over the years, but securing the supply of phones (of a specific model) is something that's put me off digging further into it.

On Friday, I watched the #Disney film #Pocahontas – it surprised me with its #beautiful #messages!
One of the them was that we need more #love and less war and conflict
. Love yourself
, love others (at least care about others)
and love our wonderful #planet (at least take care of it)
.
Another message: we must respect and fulfil the rights of #indigenouspeoples , switch to clear-cutting-free #forestry
, switch to a #circulareconomy
and provide people with good working conditions.

Plastic credits offer a way for companies to offset their plastic waste by funding collection and recycling, but their effectiveness is debated. Critics warn of greenwashing and insufficient impact, while supporters see potential for accountability and funding cleanup. #PlasticPollution #Sustainability #CircularEconomy Read more: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/8/7/plastic-credits-a-false-solution-or-the-answer-to-global-plastic-waste

"Fairphone’s progress on core impact strategies, page 21.
Under the header "Levels of circularity: 8 R’s" are 3 shaded areas pointing to "KPI 2", "KPI 3", then "KPI 3 + 4". A banded arrow along the left bridges these areas, pointing upward. Its label is "Order of Priority" from "Low" to "High".
These point to KPI 2.
Refuse: prevent raw materials use.
Rethink: redesign product in view of circularity.
These point to KPI 3.
Reduce: decrease raw materials use.
Repair: maintain and repair product.
Refurbish: revive product.
Remanufacture: make new product from second hand.
Repurpose: re-use product but with other function.
This points to KPI 3 + 4.
Recycle: salvage material streams with highest possible value.
