Reduce, Reuse, Re .... what?

May 7, 2008 11:38 AM

We all know there is more than one way to skin a cat. Likewise, there are a surprising number of ways to use ordinary objects like aluminum foil and tennis balls and to creatively reuse ordinary trash to create impressive ‘recycled’ urban furniture and bizarre ‘recycled’ works of architecture or even turn unusual garbage into alternative fuel sources.

Some people arguably take reuse a little too far and others would contend that reducing consumption should be the priority so that post-consumer recycling is less of an issue in the first place.

This is another excellent resource with 50 ways to save the environment. I bought a shirt from them a little while back with the 50 items visualized (makes for a good conversation piece).
