How did circular economy come to be dominated by recycling when durability was known to be the solution well over 50 years ago "A durable goods economy is precisely the contrary of an economy based on planned obsolescence.... 1/2 #illich 1971 #DeScoolSociety

A durable goods economy means a constraint on the Bill's of goods. Goods would have to be such that they provided the maximum opportunity to 'do' something with the item: items made for self assembly self-help reuse repair." 2/2 #GoodDesign #CircularDesign

Here the 10 wasted houses, from left to right as you face them On other side of road is whole range of amenities incl kids play area, swimming pool, courts, stream, walkway All within walking distance of village Surely do what's needed for these to be homes ASAP #DerelictIreland

Isn't it mad that in 2024 a decade into a housing crisis 10 homes sit empty decaying because Uisce Éireann - Irish Water refuse to upgrade the sewage system & that neither the owner nor Cork County Council install septic tanks while they await sewage connection This is #DerelictIreland

Jude Sherry Uisce Éireann - Irish Water Cork County Council Structural violence that's costing lives and traumatising generations Instead of turning them into homes they are left rot by the state It's time to use (compulsory sales/squat) or lose them #DerelictIreland #HousingCrisis

This is what Ireland is choosing Empty Decaying homes while people die on our streets This is a choice Choose to vote out those who enabled #VacantIreland #DerelictIreland through inaction Choose a different Government

Frank O'Connor anois Oh we can come up with 'reasons' but they all lead upstream to the root cause of not giving everyone a right to a home in Ireland #EveryoneShouldHaveAHome #VacantIreland #DerelictIreland

Jamcc Frank O'Connor anois Septic tanks should be put in by Cork County Council while awaiting Uisce Éireann - Irish Water to sort their shit out But incompetence is rewarded in Ireland "Bonus payments by Uisce Éireann to staff increase by 17% to €10.57m in 2023" #DerelictIreland rte.ie/news/business/…

10 homes wasted for 15 years Because the houses can't be connected by Uisce Éireann - Irish Water That's the story How many people have struggled in this time for lack of a home? A f*cking lot Surely Cork County Council should put in septic tanks & get people in these ASAP You'd think.. #DerelictIreland
