I am currently on my honeymoon in Australia (yay!). As I have previously mentioned in my blog about greening amusement parks<\/a>, my husband is a roller coaster enthusiast. This (of course) means that we have been riding some roller coasters on our fun voyage together down under. And while at Luna Park in Sydney, I ran into these wonderful recycling and trash bins that they use throughout the park. They made me laugh and think to recycle (or feed the clowns thoughtfully, as they say) at the same time, which I think is highly effective at promoting recycling mindfulness. See photos below (make sure to check our their helpful clown suits)!<\/p>\n
