Mike_Gauthier Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 A new and creative way of reuse and recycle is being spearheaded by the Swedes over at Ikea. I was curious how the cc.com community might contribute to this competition. http://www.brickfish.com/Lifestyles/IKEA?tab=overview&=EC_IKEA_360_IKEA_US_HomePage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 are you suggesting we should put poop in the ikea blue bag? How much poop could fit in that big bag? NO really, it all looks very good of Ikea to do what they are doing. In the future, not using plastic bags is something that we will be wondering why it took so long to do. It looks like Ikea has done lots of good stuff to clean up there business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hikerwa Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Bring that bad boy home, throw it in the washer, and pow you're set for another climb (or trip to IKEA!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScaredSilly Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Take the Ikea bag to your local manure pile fill it up and then drop it off at their door. Then recycle the bag. Sorry I am not an Ikea fan. Mostly cheap furniture made from particle board that will last less than decade. Go buy some good furniture that will last for generations.

billbob Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 The site is asking for pics, etc of "blue bags", are they !? Mike, are you a being a trouble-maker ? Folks, do not forget to secure the wrist leash before attempting to photograph your blue bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 True story. Climbing partner walks (newb)into white river ranger station looking for a garbage bag to line his pack. He asks the ranger if she had any plastic bags. She pulls a blue bag out of a box behind the desk. He responds "Oh, that's not big enough". The look of horror on her face was almost as priceless as the look on his face when he realized what the blue bag was for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington DC just passed a resolution to charge 5 cents per plastic bag at stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
