since i don't have a reliable way of scanning negatives it was scanned from a print I made. The titles refers to the fact that I'm recycling some of my older work!
Recycled denim sourced from industrial waste denim and old pairs of jeans is being used to insulate Europe’s largest straw bale panel buildings at the new £4m Inspire Bradford Business Park located in the Eccleshill area of the city.
Supplied by Sheffield-based sustainable eco-product manufacturer Recovery Insulation, Inno-Therm is a thermal and acoustic insulation manufactured using fibres from waste denim.
Inno-Therm is an eco-friendly insulation as it doesn’t contain melamine, phenolic resins or other chemical irritants, meaning it is completely safe to handle and can be installed in a new build without the need for cumbersome safety equipment. The product meets the highest testing standards for fire and smoke ratings, fungi resistance and corrosiveness.
Once the installation is complete, the two structures will incorporate 700 rolls of Inno-Therm, which equates to over 1,200 sq m of insulation.
Recovery Insulation is a social enterprise and for every sq metre of insulation sold, the company donates a percentage of the profits to the Schools and Homes Energy Education Project in Sheffield, which supports renewable energy, fuel and money saving activities in local and national schools and community projects.
Tony Holdich, NCA chief executive and manager of the business park, said: “Using recycled denim to insulate the buildings at Inspire keeps in line with our ethos of utilising sustainable, environmentally-friendly products in order to meet with the business park’s green credentials. The performance of the Inno-Therm insulation exceeds that of more commonly used insulation materials such as rock and glass, whilst reducing the amount of waste textile products sent to landfill.
“The installation of the insulation is another key milestone in the progression of the Inspire site and takes us one step closer to completion, which is a very exciting prospect.”

During the month of June, Mosman residents were invited to recycle their batteries rather than send them to landfill in the general waste bin.
A total of 50.92 kilograms of household batteries were collected!
Batteries contain many hazardous chemicals and can cause environmental pollution as they start to corrode and break down in landfill.

This cute little passport cover is made from several fused layers of plastic grocery bags sewn together with green thread.
It has two circles on the front cover made of canvas and vintage feedsack fabric. It has amazing texture! It has two pockets on the inside, one to hold your passport and another for a boarding pass or anything you need to keep safe!

I made this purse yesterday from a homespun dress from Woolrich. It has a large outside pocket and red calico inside with a pocket.
These are fantastic fun to make in a group. The plastic bottles are held together with tie wraps, passed through little melted holes. Watch out for the fumes!
Just a few of the busy commuters we praised for using the right litter bin during National Recycling Week 2013
This is a picture of recycling trashcans that i took inside the Math/Physics building. Recycling is good for the environment to become more green. Materials that are placed in these trashcans are reused again.
Tick-tock! Make a mod clock from recycled cans.

These bins are in a park near my house. I don't know if anyone actully puts the right thing in the right place or not, but I like to pretend that they do. Also don't know what the city does with the stuff when they come to collect it.

Dudley Council bosses have pledged to keep the environment as a key focus and are reminding residents that they can play their part by sorting recycling: www.dudley.gov.uk/news/council-pledges-to-recycle-well-fo...

The purpose of this project was to build a box where we could drop garbage bags when our primary garbage bin is simply not enough. We have a family of 8 in total, and this naturally creates a significant amount of trash. Combined with a garbage truck that only comes around every two weeks during the winter period and add hungry animals to the mix and you can easily see how this becomes a necessity.
This was a wife sponsored project, those are the ones I love as she will not only provide feedback but also usually help with the physical build itself.
The box is assembled with a few 2x4 as the skeleton structure, there is no bottom (we wanted any fluids from the bags or snow/ice to be able to go straight into the ground), and the top is a simple 1/4 inch plywood plank that was left over from a previous project. There are probably between 5-8 pallets into this project simply because of all the planks for the sides. I already owned the 2x4, but there are I think 4 in this project. The kids could climb on the box (even if they are told not to) so we wanted it to be sturdy and not collapse.

You would think this is an awkward design to reuse. Simply look at the card in sections and with a blank piece of paper you can section it off before cutting to imagine what it looks like
I made this dress from a secondhand pillowcase, using SImplicity pattern 7056 (which I also bought secondhand!) The vintage buttons are from a lot I bought off Etsy seller Roxypop.
Here are the before and after photos of my workspace.
Recycled over 30 magazines, multiple Styrofoam coffee cups, a couple of
plastic cups and an empty soft drink bottle.
This include a lot of copies of Security policies I drafted and
re-drafted for review.
Also, I had a ton of plastic bags under my desk that I am recycling.
Thanks, this motivated me to clean up my desk and recycle a ton of
things.

I often wonder If the powers that be even believe in their own rhetoric or are they just kissing the arse of the EU bureaucrats to score brownie points, who they themselves inflict rules and regulations on the rest of us to blindly follow their non common law acts of laws?.
Where I live, the parking has gotten so bad and made worse by the university west of Scotland’s students who’ve long taken over the residents parking spaces, since they don’t wish to pay for parking closer to the university. This has resulted in residents being unable to get in and out of their own street, let alone find a space close to their home to park their cars if they could during the day time.
Plus the street not very wide and made worse where it bottle necks just as you come off a busy road. So with so many people parking on the pavement, to which many will place all four wheels on the pavements. The bottle neck has become a place to double park, rendering any type of emergency crews to struggle to get through, in or even park themselves. Hell the road workers put out cones and were forced to abandon a road dig because someone parked right in between the cones… No S###!
Its funny, if you never had a parking ticket on the windscreen of your car, you’d get fined for it. But flout so many rules where even the pedestrian’s can walk on the pavements due to cars and residents bins blocking your progress. No one seems to care… Strange that?
Saying that even car owners are victims in all of this, with poor road maintenance, awful road planning parking layouts. While forced to drive miles to find work only to be pushed onto the pavement with over the top parking charges making it impossible to park beside their place of business. Then we have the EU crazy new migration pact recently signed, that could see 50 some million migrants flood to the west and all with their cars and zero understanding of the rules. Hell most of the trash & furniture dumped in my street is caused by their lack of English or how things are supposed to be done in this country.
Then we come to why we’re here. The new bins have arrived along with the instructions on how o use them and how petty they are. For one I never new their where so many types of paper that went into so many types of bins and I’m one who does recycle. Not because politicians say so, but because I choose to.
Anyone remember those wee green food bins where I say many booted and abandoned down our street and fly tipped els where. We had one resident who used them to store their dog s#### dropping while the rest went unused. I put my food waste in the brown bin wit all the garden waste since I’m he only one who gives a toss about the back gardens.
So like I said, I often wonder If the powers that be even believe in their own rhetoric when the people in my street and those I’ve spoke with don’t give a dogs s### about these new green bins and will dump what they want in the back bins
I took a few photos where you can clearly see how all these bans are now blocking the pavements as well as proving how people will dump all the wrong items in the wrong bins, regardless of the itemise list given to them to follow.
You know I wouldn’t mind seeing in my garden a compost bin with instructions on how to use it. I know you can chuck in food, garden waste and even old news papers. Though I’d probably be the only one using it or gives a crap about the state of my street, more so when being forced to all on the pavement due to all the cars and bins being un ticked on the f#### roads these days.
Sort out that mess first given the drive is to clean up the environment why don’t you! Oh yes check the photos of the green traffic lights box with all its wires exposed at the top of Well street and the CCTV above it. Here’s where I was told, the council backed into it and drove off after lifting up a dumped fridge placed on the street… Shocker…
First thing I found around when I got my W90
