*Finger Lakes ReUse To Give Away Free Quality Items At Triphammer ReUse
Center*


Finger Lakes ReUse is giving away items this weekend (Saturday through
Monday) at the Triphammer ReUse Center (2255 N. Triphammer Road in the
Triphammer Marketplace).


Keeping items out of the waste stream is one of our top priorities at
Finger Lakes ReUse.  Reusable items that we receive through donations from
the community are typically priced at least 50% off new retail prices, and
if items don’t sell immediately, the price is lowered over time through our
color coding system (check the signs in our stores for more information).
To make room in our stores for more incoming material and to keep these
quality items out of the landfill, we are offering them to the community
free of charge.


There will be carts in front of the Triphammer ReUse Center with the items
available for free Saturday through Monday only. The items are include
glassware, dishware, toys, binders, lighting, ceiling fans, light bulbs,
plumbing, window blinds, electrical and more. Feel free to take as much as
you need.


*Finger Lakes ReUse operates two nonprofit Community ReUse Centers,
encouraging high-volume reuse of materials through convenient and
accessible locations, creating and supporting job training opportunities
and living-wage jobs, and teaching repair and reuse skills. ReUse helps
strengthen the local economy, builds community, and protects the
environment by redirecting materials from the waste stream into productive
reuse.*


*The Triphammer ReUse Center at 2255 North Triphammer Road (in the
Triphammer Marketplace, on TCAT bus route #30 or #70) and the Ithaca ReUse
Center at 214 Elmira Road (on TCAT bus route #15) will continue to be open
seven days a week as always, with thousands of additional items. Finger
Lakes ReUse can be reached at (607) 257-9699 and accepts checks, cash, and
credit cards.*

[sustainable_tompkins-l] Democracy at Work: Richard Wolff Livestream from Munich

[Tony Del Plato]

Dear friends:
As one who has been involved the cooperative movement to varying degrees
for decades, including workplace ownership/self-management, this event
sounds exciting (see the list of people on the panel). I thought you'd be
interested as well.
in solidarity

acTVism
Munich Livestream:*
*Freedom & Democracy - Global Issues in Context*
January 15, 2017 at 1pm EST (US time)
*RSVP to receive an email

with a direct link*
*available 2 hours before the live event. *

*About:* “At the end of the Second World War a new era of globalization of
capital and production began that continues on today and is enforced
through manifold free trade agreements. In addition, the disparity between
rich and poor is growing ever larger and global society is experiencing the
increasing regression of stability and civil rights. Are these events
interconnected? Can we see a pattern? We will speak with international
experts about supposed structures and connections to find out if and how we
can make a change for the better of all.”

Anyone is welcome to view the livestream and we hope you can join!

Thank you for your support,
