Repair Cafés redden 300.000 voorwerpen

Repair Cafés over de hele wereld hebben in 2017 gezamenlijk 300.000 voorwerpen gered van de afvalberg. Dat is ongeveer even veel als het gewicht van een dubbeldektrein met twaalf rijtuigen! Dat staat in het jaarverslag van Repair Café International over 2017.

Verspreid over de hele wereld gaan maandelijks 50.000 mensen naar een Repair Café. Ze worden daar geholpen door ruim 21.000 vrijwilligers. Door de inzet van al deze mensen is in 2017 circa 300.000 kilo CO2-uitstoot voorkomen.

250 Repair Cafés erbij
Het Repair Café-netwerk groeit nog altijd. In 2017 kwamen er wereldwijd bijna 250 locaties bij waar regelmatig wordt gerepareerd. De groei was het sterkst in Frankrijk. Daar nam het aantal Repair Cafés met 47 toe, tot 177. Frankrijk is nu het vierde Repair Café-land. Alleen in Nederland, Duitsland en België zijn meer Repair Cafés.

Volgens de Nederlandse Spoorwegen weegt één ‘bak’ (= rijtuig) van een dubbeldekker leeg 26.000 kilo. Een dubbeldekker met twaalf rijtuigen weegt dus 312.000 kilo.
