Really? You Can Recycle that?

Some items you may have thought trash-bound are actually recyclable--and we're not talking just yogurt containers

It's Friday afternoon, and time for a lighthearted post of recycling. Recently the Daily Green posted a piece on recycling oddities. While the links for recycling bikes and running shoes may not be new news to Backpacker readers, links to where you can recycle dentures, prosthetics, hair clippings, diapers and sex toys may be. So look busy so you don't get the wrath of your boss, and check out their site for a quick slide show that's sure to kill the last few minutes of your workweek.

Have a great weekend!!!
