a timely, funny, message from comedian ed byrne about recycling over christmas from the recycle now group.
let’s face it. underwear is one thing we never think of recycling, yet a new trend has started in japan that may soon gain support (no pun intended) with the rest of the world, namely, recycling bras into solid fuel. the unbelievable result of an eco-campaign hosted by wacoal, japan’s leading manufacturer of ladies’ underwear, is a collection of bras weighing approximately 3.59 tons, the length of which, if hooked together, would be three times the height of mt everest! “from february through april we distributed bags at our retail stores for customers to use to bring in unwanted bras. we received 350 bags, and based on the average weight of one brassiere, we have collected about 35,900 pieces,” says the company’s public relations department. a competing company known as triumph, is following the lead of its rival and in a transparent effort to “one-up it” and show the donor some appreciation, gives out 50-yen postage stamps per bag of bras. the bras are recycled into solid fuel, that knows not of different cup sizes and out-dated designs. psychologically, some behavioral secrets have been tapped by a study conducted by wacoal. it seems that for whatever reason, 61% of women hesitate when it comes to throwing away all old bras. (it may have to do with the fact that often when they are discarded, it’s not because they are dirty or unsuitable for wear; perhaps only out of style.). many women in the study said that they would not like to see other women wearing their discarded underwear. in areas where the use of translucent bags for garbage collection is mandatory, women who don’t want others to see what they are doing for whatever reason feel they have to literally cut up the bras into small fragments. most customers involved in this special recycling program were women who fell into the 20s to 30s age range. both manufacturers took extra care in ensuring that only retail store personnel received the bags, handing them over to the processing section sealed and unopened. the trend of recycling bras has caught on both in britain and in the united states. the bras are now being used for purposes other than fuel; namely both as revamped bras and also as unusual purses. one textile recycling company in arizona, bosom buddy recycling specializes in recycling bras and providing deserving women with a basic lingerie staple. “we are creating awareness about delaying the number of re-usable textiles, such as bras that are unnecessarily being sent to landfills and could be used for women and girls in our communities who are experiencing challenges in their lives. we are using simple encouragements to develop, blossom, and renew positive attitudes and self-esteem,” said an organization spokesperson.” heads up, and bra-recycling programs everywhere: “may your cups always runneth over!” source
houston - at the international space station, it was one small sip for man and a giant gulp of recycled urine for mankind. astronauts aboard the space station celebrated a space first on wednesday by drinking water that had been recycled from their urine, sweat and water that condenses from exhaled air. they said "cheers," clicked drinking bags and toasted nasa workers on the ground who were sipping their own version of recycled drinking water. "the taste is great," american astronaut michael barratt said. then as russian gennady padalka tried to catch little bubbles of the clear water floating in front of him, barratt called the taste "worth chasing." he said the water came with labels that said: "drink this when real water is over 200 miles away." the urine recycling system is needed for astronaut outposts on the moon and mars. it also will save nasa money because it won't have to ship up as much water to the station by space shuttle or cargo rockets. it's also crucial as the space station is about to expand from three people living on board to six. the recycling system had been brought up to the space station last november by space shuttle endeavour, but it couldn't be used until samples were tested back on earth and a stuck valve was fixed on monday. so when it came time to actually drink up, nasa made a big deal of it. the three-man crew stood holding their drinks and congratulated engineers in two nasa centers that worked on the system. "this is something that had been the stuff of science fiction," barratt said before taking a sip. nasa deputy space shuttle manager leroy cain called it "a huge milestone." on the russian side of the space station, moisture in the air — not urine — is turned into drinking water. the new system takes the combined urine of the crew from the toilet, moves it to a big tank, where the water is boiled off, and the vapor collected. the rest of contaminants — the yucky brine in the urine — is thrown away, said marybeth edeen, the space station's national lab manager who was in charge of the system. the water vapor is mixed with water from air condensation, then it goes through filters, much like those put on home taps, edeen said. when six crew members are aboard it can make about six gallons from urine in about six hours, edeen said. some people may find the idea of drinking recycled urine distasteful, but it is also done on earth, but with a lot longer time between urine and tap, edeen said. in space, it takes about a week, she said. source
