Help, @BoschHomeIn! The #oven door latch motor on our #Bosch HBL A UC-02 broke! I have two ovens, and one part on one oven broke. Please help me avoid putting TWO or even ONE oven in a #landfill when all I need is one new or used working part! #appliances #sustainability #home
@BoschHomeUS We have a HBL 745 A UC 02 oven that is old but works perfectly fine except for the oven door lock motor. We heard that you no longer make parts for this, but I am hoping for any solution. Environmentally, I'd like to replace the motor or small assembly.
Is anyone else having a challenge with @ETSY? I don't know who to believe. I needed something ideally by last Saturday and the seller kept delaying, and now they say they won't send it at all because ETSY never paid them, even though they also say they can see I paid ETSY?
I hate to say I can no longer rent or recommend renting a car from @Avis. They seem to have a scam where they send a letter claiming damage- and say there is no way to dispute it. We apparently filled a car with sand & broke a windshield that was fine on the way to the airport??
@Avis Please don't send a letter telling to call customer service and then have your representative ask why we are calling the # given. We literally worried this was a scam. And we still think this. What a waste of time & energy - Did you think we wouldn't notice fake charges?
I don't believe in packing the court. But I also really don't believe in denying a sitting President their fair
#SCOTUS pick. I'm still angry for Merrick Garland, and for all of us. Don't use ridiculous tactics and then cry foul. (But I also still wonder how that even happened.)
I use twitter occasionally personally, and regularly for business. I hope Elon Musk doesn't take over. Some of what I am hearing seems reckless and will in my opinion risk the value and safety and quality of this community for many. Maybe users should vote - I'd be curious.
Thanks @nature_org for pointing out some positives. Too much of the news is quite depressing. I agree we need action plans and more to back up pledges and commitments. #carbon #deforestation #finance #sustainability It's true: "Nature’s fate and ours are one in the same."
Believe it or not, a lot happened this year for the environment. Here’s a look back on some of the biggest progress for nature and #ClimateAction in 2021: nature.ly/3mfUvyn
I don't want to give @tedcruz the attention he so clearly craves by saying that only the most incredibly selfish, rude person would carelessly, deliberately insult & risk the health of others, & mid-public health crisis. And at a funeral. But how could anyone be so inconsiderate?

What the heck @Uber? We've been trying to tip a driver from a ride that is about to expire for tips, and we are getting silly auto responses, and errors. This is not fair to drivers. We want to do the right thing, and there's no way to get help? This also makes us look rude. :(
We were excited @Audi @Audiofficial to invest in the #Q5 #plugin #hybrid. But it's been frustrating to learn the hard way that the #car is not compatible with other chargers (and no #bike hitch) #hybrids #EV #EVs #ElectricVehicles #ElectricCars #pluginhybrid Not ok to not inform.

Burning natural gas is *really* bad for our health.

We have been eager for info to share on this topic, thanks! Proper #deconstruction is good for the planet of course, & good for people and orgs who get the #materials, and there can be #tax benefits. It just makes sense. Why throw away what can be reused? #building #construction
Didn't get a chance to come to our latest webinar about deconstruction? Check out our recap blog post and webinar recording! centerforecotechnology.org/d…
I don't get it, @spotify. Either you offer a free service or you don't. You say I can listen some if I watch ads, but then no matter what, I can't listen to the ONE song someone sent me that I wanted to hear. It feels dishonest. Now I'm mad, not good for your sponsors either.
We had #ski plans too, @VP @Mike_Pence. Sad to cancel, but all who can now should avoid #travel & do the right thing for #publichealth & #safety. #Leaders should stay home as well. If we can be careful, we can get back to traveling - and everything - sooner. #COVID19 #health
Congratulations to Justin and the Zenano Team! These are super masks - washable and reusable - up to 50 times! (and very comfortable, too!)

What better choice could there be for the role of USA 🇺🇸 Presidential Climate Envoy than former Secretary of State & Senator John Kerry who played such a pivotal role in the negotiations leading to the #ParisAgreement on #ClimateChange. @CFigueres npr.org/sections/biden-trans…

More than 66% of the eligible voting population in the US participated in the 2020 presidential election. We have the power to change the future by building on this new momentum for the democratization of health. Read more: bit.ly/3nIS0Te #health #equity #HealthForAll
