About: The Freecycle Network

An Entity of Type: agent, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Freecycle Network (TFN, or Freecycle) is a private, nonprofit organization registered in Arizona and is a charity in the United Kingdom. TFN coordinates a worldwide network of "gifting" groups to divert reusable goods from landfills. The network provides a worldwide online registry, organizing the creation of local groups and forums for individuals and nonprofits to offer (or request) free items for reuse or recycling and to promote a gift economy. In contrast, although flea markets and swap meets also contribute to the 3 R's (reduce, reuse, recycle), they involve mainly buying and selling or bartering rather than gifting.

  • Freecycle è un progetto di riutilizzo dei beni. In alternativa alle discariche, dove gli oggetti usati vengono stoccati o bruciati, Freecycle promuove il regalo di tutto quello che può essere riutilizzato e riciclato, attraverso dei centri di distribuzione in tutto il mondo.Ideata da Deron Beal, un ambientalista dell'Arizona (USA), che nel 2003 creò una mailing list per vecchi oggetti, l'organizzazione è cresciuta fino a contare più di 51 paesi e coinvolgendo più di un milione e mezzo di persone attive in 4.834 gruppi. Il Freecycle Network è aperto a chiunque, ed ha sedi in tutto il mondo. In Italia, al momento, è presente a: * Aosta * Asti * Bari * Bologna * Brescia * Cagliari * Cividale del Friuli * Cossato * Firenze * Genova * Ivrea * Lecce * Livorno * Milano * Napoli * Roma * Savona * Teramo * Torino * Vicenza * Zagarolo La regola principale è:"Everything posted must be free, legal, and appropriate for all ages" ossia "tutto deve essere gratuito, legale e adatto a tutte le età".
