At the ISWEEEP, GENIUS, and other Gulenist environmental olympiads, recycling moves beyond plastic, waste and graywater: entire science projects themselves are recycled.  As they resurface at other olympiads, they often come with different student names.  Examples are given below.  In all cases where the school name was given (INESPO lists school names but not student names; ISWEEEP, GENIUS and INEPO list student names  but not school names) it turns out to be a Gulen school.
