Sometimes I think I get most of my recycle- reuse posts from my neighbors trash. Again, there are baseball bats that are just thrown away. How wasteful is that?
I just gotta Eco Ya:
- The majority of wood baseball bats today are made from northern white ash harvested from Pennsylvania or New York. White ash is used because of it’s hardness, durability, strength, weight and “feel”. Trees that provide the lumber for baseball bats are often 50 years old, and of all the lumber harvested – the top 10% is saved for pro bats.(Source)
- Aluminum Bats are recyclable
- Eco Friendly Bamboo Baseball Bats are available form BamBooBat Company
