Plastic bottle house in Puerto Iguazu

It looks fun and very sustainable but I doubt if the plastic bottles would are up to the stormy and rainy weather in the Netherlands.

TinyRobots by Andreea Strete

I'm very picky with jewelry, but this is cute. Necklaces created by recycled electronics. And the TinyRobots aren't even that expensive.

How To Recycle A Car

Get rid of the board computers, a car has to be mechanical. I like! A documentary of Suame Magazine, a 100y old district where they can make everything, incl. recycling cars.

"North of the Kumasi marketplace is Suame Magazine, a neighbourhood car market. Originating in 1920s when blacksmiths started to shift their attention from carriages to cars, the Suame Magazine, now employes an estimated 200,000 artisans in 12,000 enterprises, mainly related to auto repair."

Re-Use Conveyor Belts

How cool and sustainable and good looking!

"Dutch company Kazmok, for instance, makes an entire bag range — such as briefcases, travel bags and even iPad sleeves — out of rubbery conveyor belts. The materials are sourced from the flower industry, postal depots, distribution centers and the recycling industry."

'Kintsugi'

The Japanese tradition of kintsugi — the artful repairing of damaged objects — is a practice that continues to fascinate me. In our society today, most things are not repaired if broken. If a toaster quits working, the normal practice is to throw it away and get a replacement. Still, shoes get repaired. Automobiles do — probably more than we’d like — and iPhones can be repaired if the damage is not severe. John Foster looks at things broken, repaired and/or mended — and the beauty of such.

Coca Cola Recycling King

Coca-Cola wanted to leverage Facebook Places to increase awareness for recycling plastic bottles and created "The Recycling King" activity.
We added over 10,000 recycle bins locations to the Facebook Places system. So no matter where you are in Israel, you can find a Recycle bin near you.
From there, things just started happening on their own. Thousands participated and shared the recycling experience with their friends by checking in and uploading photos.
The most active participant was crowned: Recycling King

When the campaign ended, everyone in Israel knew how easy it was to track the location of nearby recycle bins...
