Smart Bins

I wish our government will be more pro-environment than politics. And being green rule! just look at Australian politics.

Anyhow, in the US, there is such a thing call smart bins, it will notify the authorities when you are not recycling..hmm sounds like a deterrent quite well known in our state city. Anyway I kept digressing hehe so back to the topic.

How these smart bins work is they will monitor how often the residents take their recycling bin out to be collected. If they are not bringing the bins out enough, someone (God knows who, the Environmental Police maybe) will come look through your regular garbage bin and if they smell a rat (not rat rat, but if there are more than 10% recyclable items in your garbage bin), you will be fined! Brillant idea!

So next time, remember to bin the right stuff in the right bin!
