Uses of Bicycles the Eco Friendly Way

Bicycles could really stop air pollution. Imagine riding a bicycle and cleaning up the air. Bicycles have a lot to contribute to our planet, and if people rid

e bicycles then pollutions could lessen. Bicycles have different contributions and uses; it can even be a wall clock. That’s right, chain rings from bicycles could be used to create your own wall clock. One of the good things about it is recycling, and creativity.

From the website, Etsy Shop via Alternative Consumer:

Perfect for the cyclist in your life! This wall clock is made using a recycled bicycle chain ring and reclaimed textile. The textile is varying shades of brown with a wood grain design.

Requires one AA battery, not included.
A metal hanger is attached to the back of the clock for easy hanging.

Size: measures 5″ (12.7 cm) in diameter

Each chain ring is thoroughly cleaned before use with every effort made to bring out its very best, however, due to the recycled nature of this product some scratches may remain. Take one gnarly looking bike chain ring add a heaping helping of recycled wood-grain fabric and you’ve got the perfect timepiece for that Lance Armstrong-inspired man-cave of yours.

Other than that there are also programs which make u recycle bicycles.

Recycle-a-Bicycle is a non-profit organization and environmental education initiative that facilitates job training, environmental steward-ship, and everyday bicycle use. Bike sales directly support RAB’s youth outreach and programming.

Recycle-A-Bicycle promotes everyday bicycle use, and it is a great place to learn bicycle mechanics, interact with positive, forward-thinking NYC youth. Our retail shops are the place to find that city bike you need.

Aside from all those, bicycles and recycling would be a wonderful way to keep our community clean.
