Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (23240) 5 Aug

Serendipity strikes again

Judy Evans @JudyEv (382019) • Rockingham, Australia 13 Feb 21

At the moment, we’re a bit obsessive about this ‘saving ourselves’ should a bushfire come our way. The next project will be to remove the tyres you can see in the photo as, if they caught alight, the shed would probably catch fire...

Mulch made of Recycled Tyres

GreenMoo @GreenMoo (11833) 25 May 08

I've heard that you can buy a mulch for the garden which is made of recycled vehicle tyres. Now I'm all in favour of recycling things, but I'll be honest and say that garden mulch would not have been the first use I could think of...
