Made from Recycled Products: Stuff to Buy
We all know to recycle. It's good for the environment: it reduces waste, recycled goods use less energy than good created from raw materials.
But what kinds of things are available to buy?
>>> How about clothing and apparel?
My newest belt is made from recycled tires. It was made by Hempy's of California and so far holds my pants up quite fine. No news on the mpg though ...

That's really innovative! That's a really good idea to make the belt out of tires. I hope there will be even more to come.
