Subscription Cards Bracelet

Admit it: most probably, half of the subscription cards inserted inside the magazines you buy end up in your trash bin. The paper, the waste, the loss!

So Timeout New York shares instructions by Alex Lockwood (arguably the best paper folder there is as per article description) on how to recycle those cards instead of just throwing them away--by turning them into colourful bracelets (though the durability of this is yet to be contested). I personally think this isn't limited to just bracelets--think pen holders, paper vases, paper weights. Think green!

The Plastics Counter


Plastic bags consumed this year:



I am not so sure about the algorithm they used to calculate the consumption, but if we are to follow the counter, then we'd be buried alive in plastic waste in a few years! Not something to look forward to, ayt.
