The town hall Almere in the Netherlands decided, just before the pandemic, to halve how often paper bins are emptied from residential neighborhoods.
The pandemic hit, we all changed how we shop, and after more than two years of data, they still haven’t reintroduced the old schedule or increased the capacity of public recycle points — all while increasing tax income through massive population growth.
Results?
Every Monday, this.
If you are in a position to take decisions, be more data-driven — and try to actually care for the environment!

Hi there,

During Covid-19, a new tradition was born at GoDataDriven | Part of Xebia: online cooking workshops.
Why?
We have a diverse and international team, many of us coming from places with a rich culinary tradition.
Why not teach our colleagues how to cook differently once?
Of all people, my eldest children (11 and 10 at the time) started, with tiramisu and pasta 🧄, oil, and 🌶.
We then had the Spanish version by Guillermo Sánchez Dionis (go Barça), Indonesian by Sarah Parinussa, Colombian by Juan Manuel Perafan, again Italian (this time by me, not my kids).
And yesterday we had Mexican, by Bram Ochsendorf and Angelica Consejo Pinet.
And what an amazing result (enmoladas pictured)!
Thanks to all the chefs, and to Diana de Kruijf, Sander Hoogenbosch, and Shanon ten Napel for organizing! A great #hospitality #team goes a long way!
We’re at it again: GoDataDriven | Part of Xebia on the world stage!
