I rarely post here, but if I do, I typically post about environmental toxins in e-waste and what can be done to prevent these from becoming a danger to our environment from improper disposal.

Occasionally, though, I feel compelled to share updates in adjacent spaces to recycling. In this case, it's not only the risks to the planet and ourselves from improperly managing waste, but also the risk to us from the products themselves before they are ever discarded.

The following was news to me, and frankly, horrifying. I immediately went out and sourced different dental floss to avoid continuing to expose my body to PFAs. I can't think of a greater risk than rubbing PFA-coated dental floss directly against my gums, and likely directly into my bloodstream. My previous exposure is already history, and I can't do anything about it, but I made an immediate change moving forward. PFAs are already in so many products that eliminating them completely from our lives is extremely daunting, but this one change is a no-brainer to me.

If you aren't already aware of this subject, I'd recommend doing a little reading (I did), and sourcing a different dental floss for yourself and your loved ones.

How to Choose Dental Floss Without PFAS and Other Harmful Chemicals - Consumer Reports Dental floss can be coated with PFAS. Here's how to choose one less likely to contain that chemical and other potentially harmful ingredients.

The laptops have arrived in Zambia! A few weeks ago, we shared a post about our collaboration with Support Sustain Succeed Zambia to send 20 refurbished laptops to a high school in Mapalo, Zambia. We’re thrilled to announce that the laptops arrived and are now being used by the students. With these laptops, the students finally have access to real computers for their computer skills classes in the newly constructed computer lab. Thanks to the businesses who have provided surplus computers to 3R Technology. They helped to make this effort possible.
