  • Australian Recycling Efforts

    Bearman Cartoons Recycling efforts in AustraliaSo the story I am told is that there was a Kangaroo farmer in Australia.  Of course you could find use for Kangaroo pelt and meat but what about all the by product?   So he decided to take the kangaroo balls and make Kangaroo Scrotum Bottle Openers.  Now he is a multimillionaire.

    Don’t believe they exist?  Well my friends take a gander.

    Imagine if this guy got rich off this what the rest of us might come up with to give new “life” to typically discarded things.  Ideas?

  • Retro Cartoon: Recycled Campaign Promises

    11 5 07 Recycled Political Candidates copy

    OK this is a twice recycled cartoon post.  So I am lazy.   But it is still relevant.  I originally created this in 2007 before I had a blog.   Reposted it in 2009 and now reposting again since half of you are new here since then.  From my 2009 post:

    I did this editorial cartoon about 2 years ago after an election. In the states, the landscape is cluttered with yard signs that promote candidates and issues in the month leading up to the election. While the volunteers are quick to put up the signs they are slow to remove them.

    Locally we have laws that say you can’t put the signs on public property, yet no one pays any attention to that because there really isn’t a penalty for violating it.

    So be a good citizen and clean up your campaign yard signs, recycle them and please STOP recycling your campaign promises.

    Funny how things never change.

  • Correct Way to Recycle a Pizza Box Cartoon

    Cartoon on How to correctly Recycle a Pizza Box

    Another multipanel cartoon (which you people love to see and I hate to make) on the proper way to Recycle a used pizza box.  This is another comic that comes from real life.

    It was only about a year ago that I learned that before you recycle a pizza box, you are supposed to cut out the grease stain.  Supposedly grease can’t be recycled (at least in that way).   So has it changed my behavior?  No!  Unlike the cartoon, I still throw the whole thing in the recycling bin.  Let them figure it out at the plant, my conscience is clear.
