Most calendars I've ever seen are made of paper, so yes. But there's another form of calendar recycling. Since there only 14 possible calendar configurations using the Gregorian Calendar, you can save calendars you like for later reuse. Of course, since 2024 was a leap year, its form won't recur again for a while.
