@The NYC Toy fair 2008 I met with the ÜBERSTIX folks, they make toys/kits that you need to recycle other things to build. Straws, ice cream sticks, paper clips, water bottles, egg cartons and more. Pictured here is a ship you build and use tossed cups/bottles to make it float, along with other trashed items to build the sail and more. It’s called the Scavenger, nice.
They also make ÜBERARC” – it’s for budding architects, students and engineers – you can construct giant “emerald city” looking structures, unlike other building systems you get real blueprints in a tube.

Great article you have there!
unfortunately, what ends up happening with me is that i steal new straws from mcdonalds, buy popsicle sticks from the craft store, and even pour the water out of a bottle. maybe that last one is a little far, but chances are few will save up trash until they have enough to build the project.
