“repurposed”IDEA: “The Synthetic Turf you have would be great to place beneath solar panel fields. I would think this would save on maintenance and would look more aesthetically pleasing.

Good News for Reuse: The newest version of the US Green Building Council‘s LEED v5 is giving even more credit for buildings that utilize “salvaged materials” in their construction. From USGBC Summary of Changes PDF: “Added list of diversion strategies and rules for calculating diversion rates: Salvaged materials are valued at a 200% diversion rate.” In practical terms, LEED is giving extra credit to salvage compared with ordinary recycling because you’re keeping the component/material in circulation rather than breaking it down into feedstock.

“repurpose”SPOTTING: “I saw this on TV when I was watching a show on the history of BBQ and thought it might be of interest to you. ‘Repurposing’ nearly 100 years ago. The Kingsford Company was formed by Henry Ford and E.G. Kingsford during the early 1920s. Charcoal was developed from Ford Motor Company’s factory waste wood scrap.” – Mark in St. Louis
RE: Mark, Awesome! I guess now we can say Mr. Ford pioneered two economic endeavors: 1) the Assembly Line, and 2) “repurposing”!
Q: Do you know of another product, like charcoal, that is made from another waste product? Email Us!
