Freecycle
BorrowMe for Freecycle Users
Feb 8th
The ideals behind the Freecycle Network are noble and geared towards helping the planet. They have thousands of groups with millions of members across the globe, but they have been facing the loss of members and groups left right and center (Most notably in the UK where Freegle has sprung up in the upheaval). Many have accused Deron Beal of trying to stifle the community, and others compare his opposition to change to Craig Newmark of Craigslist.

This year, set yourself some goals that you can actually implement, be a better neighbor, be a better tenant on earth.

The holiday season has been poisoned by mass consumption and greed. While millions of people suffer, barely able to eat, local children are throwing temper tantrums because they didn’t get the latest *INSERT TOY OF THE YEAR HERE* in their stocking.
