Transformational workspaces for e-waste

E-cowork wrote: Technology is great, until it stops working. Which is when climate heroes come in and whisk the product away for recycling. Only that, in most cases, specially in developing countries, the recycling is done by very low-skilled informal entrepreneurs at the bottom of the socio-economic pyramid. And in dismal conditions, with immense health and environmental costs and few safeguards - whether legal, social or financial. E-[co]work is about creating co-working spaces for these small and micro eco-entrepreneurs, providing not only affordable and safe spaces with the right tools and technologies to be more efficient and productive, but more importantly enabling them to access products (eg...

Insect-based protein for aqua feed

Hexafly is developing new material sources for the aqua feed, chitin and plant nutrition industries from the sustainable farming of insects. Chitin is a high-value bio-polymer with many uses in medicine, cosmetics and as a food additive. In the next few years, Hexafly predicts that the exponential increase in demand for fish food will far exceed supply. Industry will not be able to meet this demand due to declining wild fish stocks, stricter fishing quotas and an increase in material costs. The aim of the innovation is to bring an insect farming revolution to the world and find smart ways to feed the planet.

John’s road west measured the worst air quality in 2018, largely due to our reliance on fossil-fuelled motor vehicle transport. As parts of dublin city centre are likely to breach eu and the who guidelines for air quality in 2019, our idea purposes encouraging cycling as the main mode of transportation in the city center in order to limit vehicular emissions. 25% of dublin workers commute from outside the city and suburbs, while approximately 1,150,000 people commute to work via car every day in ireland...

This quantified data can be reflected anyhow we wish; for example, as earned points, giving the idea of a rewarding system. Rewarding walking/cycling can motivate people enough to change their transportation habits. More people decide to increase walking and cycling activity in their daily life, more their carbon footprint can be reduced. The key here is to reward them enough to make people change their transportation habits. So what if the earned points from walking/cycling could be exchanged to something that people need and value the most; money... Source: EIT Climate KIC's Climathon
