A hydraulic claw crunches into wood pallets at Misawa Air Base, Japan, before swinging them to a truck bound for an off-base recycling center Feb. 11, 2013. Agencies and residents can bring recyclable materials to the Misawa Recycling Center for disposal. The recycling center has a bin, can or cage for most recyclable materials.
