    Green Party Posters- Recycle??

    There does not seem to be any recycle sign on the Green Party posters. Are they environmentally friendly posters???

    No they are made from the crushed skeletons of baby seals.

    Should all parties not recycle? It's not just up to the Green Party to look after the environment.

    I think most candidates do.

    The posters are converted into pellets which can then be reconstituted into various plastic items, including sewer pipes and manhole covers.

    Judging by the local Green Party posters, it was a case of re-use rather than recycle.

    For smaller less well-funded parties this is a reality if they want to compete in the Poster Challenge at every election. SF & SP do it and the PDs are going to have to learn to do it too.

    I know Brian Meaney's used vegetable-based rather than synthetic inks, so they did look raggy after a few days. Having said that, I still wish they'd been cardboard rather than plastic.
    We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when creating them
