I realize Talk Like a Pirate Day is over for 2012, but there’s a certain piraty expression that’s good all year round: Arrr! According to the official website, it means “variously, ‘yes,’ ‘I agree,’ ‘I’m happy,’ ‘I’m enjoying this beer,’ ‘My team is going to win it all,’ ‘I saw that television sh...

This is a great little video about reuse featured last week at AOR's annual conference. It tells the reuse story beautifully. Enjoy!

As part of BRING's mission to change the world (one used window at a time), we made a movie: Reuse It. Take a look at the used building materials...

For the record, this idea actually did not originate with Free Geek, nor is it ten years old. This is a collaborative effort between a number of excellent and amazing organizations, and we hope you'll take time this week to explore Community Warehouse, SCRAP, Schoolhouse Supplies, Habitat for Humanity ReStore, the ReBuilding Center and Free Geek too!

The group Free Geek came up with the idea 10 years ago as a way to give new life to old goods and materials while keeping waste out of the landfill.
