skateboardingmagazine.com — Hardcore skaters know they have decks laying around in the garage, in their closets, and throughout their houses taking up space. One skater did something with them and made a cool piece of art. Even skaters know how to be green.

define "unnessary things". How many things do you interact with on a day to day basis that you would actually consider necessary. Guarantee that fancy computer you are typing that smug post on consumed a helluva lot more resources, time, energy than gluing together a handful of broken decks that would otherwise end up in a landfill. If we left the forests as they are... hmmm.. no paper, no building, no toothpicks. Green is reducing and minimizing our environmental impact, which in this case is making a skull out of recycled skate decks. NOT you posting your holier than thou 2 cents on Digg.

whenever someone takes something they're not using and reuses it to make something else they won't you that counts as being green.Source:my AP environmental science class

"So where do busted boards go after they die? Japanese artists Harumaki and Hirosher of Harvest by Hiroshi believe in paying homage to an old compadre by turning it into an extraordinary art project. It took 100 skateboard decks to make this skull helicopter for Burton snowboards." from <a class="user" href="http://modernurbanliving.com/2009/11/skateboard-heaven/" rel="nofollow">http://modernurbanliving.com/2009/11/skateboard-he ...</a>Original pictures from <a class="user" href="http://www.harvest-re.com/artwork/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.harvest-re.com/artwork/index.html</a>

The value of recycling is not exclusive to "essentials" only.There are no noses on skulls, it's true, but they also have teeth that are separate from each other, no stripes, nor crossbones carved on the cranium, or even acorn nuts on them. The person who carved this clearly exaggerated some features with artistic license (and you don't have to like it for it to qualify as art OR recycling), and what looks like a nose to the layman is just the bridge of the nose; or bone. Cool art.

This skull doesnt have a nose either, it just has a pronounced ridge above it.
