3/3 On this note, we also celebrate that ➡️ @europarl_en passed the #RightToRepair Directive last week 🎉

It'll allow us all access to repair services for our devices, which will:

🗑️ cut down on waste
💚 help reduce reliance on resource-intensive production

Meaning we have over two years before this legislation actually applies?
