There is a genre of "Pig Pen" wings used in kite systems, but that is not a rule for "trash kites" as high fine art may be the result of using trashed materials to make a kite system.

Use kite-energy systems for reducing trash to forms useful in further industries or applications.

  - Stone, concrete, metal,
- Tumbling
  - Glass, rock, stones, concrete chunks,
- Chipping trash plant material by use of kite-energy systems

Keep from adding to trash during kite constructing and kite flying. Ways of handling kite system parts that are no longer of use in first-planned purposes? What to do with used lines that are not any longer fit for first use?
