Human powered vehicles, e.g. freight bicycles, carrier cycles, freight tricycles, and quadracycles designed and constructed for transporting large loads. Vehicle designs include a cargo area consisting of a steel tube carrier, an open or enclosed box, a flat platform, or a wire basket. These are usually mounted over one or both wheels, low behind the front wheel, or between parallel wheels at either the front or rear of the vehicle. The frame and drivetrain must be constructed to handle loads several times that of an ordinary bicycle. Other specific design considerations include operator visibility and load suspension. The first freight bicycles were used by tradesmen for delivering mail, bread and milk, food vending in high foot traffic areas and transporting trade tools. The four-wheeled human-powered quadracycle is used for a variety of purposes, including tourist rentals, pedal taxis, private touring, mountain and industrial use.

Handmade clothing and fashion accessories made from recycled eco-friendly materials; besides reducing overall waste, it also reduces the amount of natural resources necessary to produce such products, including the land and water used to grow cotton or hemp, as well as pesticides and energy used in the agricultural and production process. The idea of clothing made from recycled materials is not only better for the planet, it is also increasingly popular with consumers looking to minimize the environmental footprint of their wardrobes.
