Environment & Energy

And a lot of Europe.
Our first apartment here we had to install the kitchen and all ceiling lights except bathroom. The flat was sold to a couple who were moving in. They bought our kitchen. All we took was the fridge.
The unit we just left we had to install a new kitchen. It was a different size so even if we took ours we would have needed a new counter top. This place we bought and are moving some of the kitchen because the rental company doesn't want any of our stuff. The next tenant will start over.
This time I'm getting a wider, 90 cm, induction cooktop and a 90 cm wide oven. I cook the occasional goose.

This will be, hopefully the last move since we are buying and I'm in my 70s. My thoughts are about the amount of waste that happens with renters moving. IKEA will take some used bits back, but the 12 foot long countertop has to go somewhere. Probably our recycling center.
