I’m originally from
Germany and have had to listen to plenty of teasing about our obsession with recycling and the meticulous way we organize our recycling. Okay, I’m obsessed with recycling, but an even more so with repairing. We all have our trusted car mechanic and plumber. Oftentimes I find myself in search of local businesses that offer repair services for smaller, every day things. For example, where do we get our shoes repaired? Watch batteries changed? Books restored? In Missoula, we have at least two places in town that repair shoes, one that changes watch batteries and one that restores books.
Here is my idea: Let’s start a list “Repair it Missoula” at www.makeitmissoula.com. With everyone’s input, the list gets longer and we are better able to reuse and recycle and reduce our input to the landfill. And for non Missoulians: If you like this idea, start a “Repair it” list at your community.
Happy repairs,
Silke
