Eco Umbrellas Made of Garbage - The Eco Brolly
The Eco Brolly
Published: Jul 3, 08

Umbrellas are like 4x4 vehicles. They don’t get appreciated until they’re needed. The Eco Brolly is a quasi-umbrella design—quasi in the sense that there is only half of it, the skeleton. When it starts to rain, you simply unscrew the top, push a newspaper onto it, and replace the screw. You suddenly have a makeshift barrier between you and the raindrops. 

It is pocket size, lightweight aluminium, suitable for Britain, where the weather is unpredictable, especially for Central Londoners, where free newspaper is available. (dvice)
