One of many really cool fences at Wild Spring Guest Habitat in Port Orford, Oregon. Myriad tones, textures, knots in the planks - and here I even see a small fox face - or maybe dog, cat, or wolf - center left of the main post.
could not resist this one, chap pulls up at the waste recycle centre with tree cuttings on top of his little yellow car, we shared a smile.
Hopefully, where you live there is a place that will take them back, usually the wine store itself. In the US, some other stores have collection bins. Near me, a sports store does (not sure why, except that sports equipment is one of the users of cork in manufacturing)--shoe inner soles, for instance, and walking pole handles. This little box is located in my apartment building, which is why so many corks are collected!
Cork Oak tree plantations, mainly in Portugal and Spain, are threatened by housing development and are disappearing! At least this is the argument I read several years ago. I no longer see that argument. Now the reason given for recycling them seems to be reusing chopped up corks in other products.
"There are companies that collect natural wine corks and then turn them into anything from shoes and bags to flooring. The two biggest companies, ReCork and Cork Forest Conservation Alliance, have drop-off locations, searchable online by zip code."--the web.
In harvesting the cork, the tree is not destroyed, but rather the bark is stripped every decade or so. It grows back, as the tree ages. Plantations have a long life, if cared for.

This is one of the scene's I remember really clear! I saw him kicking a bottle accros the street, and then he shouted something to his mom in french. This was my signal to aim my camera at him. Then he jumped. I can't remember if he even landed,... I just walked away re-checking my camera settings to see if I had it. For the next 5 minutes I must have drove my girlfriend mad talking about this shot. :-)
So If you have seen any flat bottles in Avignon, it has probably been this kid.

I was sitting at my computer and I heard the truck stop and it just sat there.. I thought it would move on but it didn't so I grabbed the camera went and opened the garage door and got off a couple of shots before he moved on.. Haven't a clue what he was waiting for but at least it gave me a photo opp... Happy Truck Thursday, Everybody!!!
Shredded U.S. currency embedded in acrylic is recycled as a decoration for a pen I turned on my lathe.
i assume Maria is making a joke. It is the Bureau of Engraving and Printing that shreds and distributes old currency:

On the Ferry back from Dublin, another shoot, during which I took some personal pictures that captured my attention.
What was it here? I guess the colours, neatly ordered?
Whatever it was... trendy!
We'll save the world yet, LOL

This caught my eye as wandered along the Thames path, and i thought a perfect scene to give my 10 stopper an airing from its box. These are the conveyors from a concrete recycling facility, whereby ships take on board used concrete from demolished buildings that has been crushed into ballast for use within foundations for new structures….money for old rope my grandad would have said!
The Danforth, a.k.a. Greektown, is one of Toronto's most popular neighbourhoods for entertainment with its numerous restaurants, pubs, cafes, and patios.
With garbage or recycling set out (alternate Tuesday evenings) for Wednesday collection, I have always thought restaurants should offer a discount to Tuesday diners.
This week is recycling - less unpleasant than garbage week which can really stink. Patio pollution?

Seen on the wall of the Long Island City workshop of Recycle-a-Bicycle at 46th Ave and 5th street. Recycle-A-Bicycle is a part of Bike New York! Through innovative programs such as Earn-A-Bike, Green Jobs Training Programs, High School Internships, Recycled Arts Workshops, Summer Youth Employment Program, and Kids Ride Club, Recycle-A-Bicycle has been dedicated to the health, development, stewardship, and empowerment of NYC youth for more than 20 years. In the past year alone, more than 1,000 RAB youth collectively refurbished 500 bicycles, pedaled 24,000 miles, and burned 1,750,000 calories. On average, RAB salvaged 1,800 bicycles each year from the waste stream, diverting a total of 45,000 pounds of waste from NYC’s landfills. Every purchase from Bike New York’s Recycle-A-Bicycle Shop directly supports their education programs.

One of the "i light Singapore" art piece - The Lantern by Josephine Pun Tsz Kiu (National University of Singapore)
Here is the exhibit label:
Nestled in the embrace of the city, the luminous pavilion emerges as a contemplation on the voracious cycle of consumption. Its gentle luminescence is an alluring invitation to be mesmerized by the sight of light dancing upon the water within.
Made out of over 5,000 upcycled plastic water bottles - a staggering quantity that mirrors the relentless pace of bottle disposal in Singapore recurring every 7 minutes - The Lantern is a sobering physical embodiment of our collective harm to the environment. Yet, by harnessing the beauty of these upcycled materials. The Lantern is also a symbol of renewal and a call for bolder, innovative design approaches to shape a more sustainable future.
Inspired (and then recycled) by the portrait 'bag' by Hendrik Kerstens
that I saw at the National Portrait Gallery - London.
