Decades of gasoline-burning cars are being karmic-ly erased. The restoration of the balance is in the hands of the CARMA Project, a concept that recycles car scrap into bicycles.

“Can a bicycle make up for everything a car has done?” is the ghostly mission statement and the first thing you see when visiting the CARMA Project’s website. CARMA Project creator Leo Burnett Lisbon’s vision lead Rcicla Bicletas to create some truly beautiful cycles out of a scrapped Mercedes. It’s artistic and environmental possibilities are endless, and as far as the karmic balance is concerned, evening it out is a daunting task, a fascinating and ironically noble cause.
