Throughout Berlin, there are green containers called Kleiderbox (clothes boxes). These boxes are depositories for used clothes and shoes that are no longer needed. A person places an unwanted item of clothing in the box, and it will be collected by the city and distributed to various charities in Berlin. It’s a wonderful alternative to filling our landfills with otherwise wearable clothing.  

The other day, I noticed a Kleiderbox with a quote written on the back. I’ve usually seen the quote written as, “The Earth Without Art is Just ‘Eh’,” but this version also gets the point across.
