Metro cards are occasionally replaced. It can be due to torn cards or new graphics design. By doing this, definitely those old cards will be discarded and thrown in our garbage and eventually to our landfills. Out of this suppose to be a scrap item, Steve Shaheen was able to created an innovative approach that make use of old metro cards. He was able to create a stylish furniture piece, a chair indeed and called it Metrobench. The seating solution is made of 5,000 metro cards, New York City metro cards to be exact. The product is definitely a great tool to help reduce landfill.
