UK — With global warming all the talk, the phrase “is it hot in here or just me” has taken on additional meaning. For lovers of sex toys, the climatic changes provide another opportunity to reach out and touch someone in a loving way. This time the entity receiving the attention is Mother Earth. Collectors of sex toys already know they come with an enormous amount of disposable packaging – but few realize the implications of a landfill packed full of heavily used butt plugs, broken eggs, unmoving vibrators, and dead rabbits.

Thanks to a recent law, it is now illegal for citizens of the UK to dispose of electrical goods in the local landfill. Sex toys make up a surprising amount of the recyclable goods that needlessly take up valuable space but, thanks to the innovative spirit of adult retailer LoveHoney, they’ll take up a little bit less from now on.

Although only launched in August, “Rabbit Amnesty” has already collected together an impressive number of dead soldiers – and every man and woman who brought in a worn Rampant Rabbit vibrator for recycling has been given half off on a replacement, which has only made the deal that much sweeter and that much more in line with EU regulations.

The conscientious orgasm merchants have managed to collect a ton of past prime pussy (and other) pleasuring devices that would otherwise have contributed to the decline of western civilization by cluttering up already overloaded landfills. Now, along with toaster ovens, tea pots, computer parts, electric can openers, and other electronic gadgets, the used sex toys will find a more suitable – and far more discreet – end.

Additionally, those who sign the Rabbit Amnesty Pledge not only know that their used toys will be recycled responsibly, but they’ll also know that £1 will be donated to the World Land Trust.

LoveHoney lead buyer, Bonny Hall observes that “although some people might think it’s strange to recycle sex toys, rabbit sales are growing every year and we don’t want old ones dumped in landfill sites across the country. Rabbit Amnesty will take embarrassment out of the equation and give people the chance to dispose of their rabbits in an environmentally friendly way.”

And if sex toys can’t be friendly to all they meet, what exactly is there purpose in this life?
