Come and join the hunt here
In our village, we use colored strings to tie garbage bags to distinguish its contents. Green strings are used for biodegradable waste like food. Yellow strings are reserved for cans, plastic, glass and metal. Blue strings are designated for dry paper waste while red strings are for waste that cannot be recycled nor put to good use (like diapers and napkins).
Great way to go green.
ReplyDeleteNice take on the theme.
Happy weekend.
V systematic indeed.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very clever way to distinguish your recyclables. Wonderful choice for the theme.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteIn some places, I see many people don't know how to dispose waste properly and certainly lack understanding on recycling their garbage.
Nice, colorful, useful - what else can one wish for?
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
What an excellent idea! Happy weekend
ReplyDeleteNow this is using the brains....wish America would do something like this....at least OUR neck of the woods...they just dump trash in one bin...and of course we have a separate bin for recycle stuff ---but it ALL goes into one bin. I like this idea.
ReplyDeleteThis week's theme will be quite interesting to see what everyone came up with for their photos. Yours, my friend, is excellent actually!!! Mine is posted, come on over to my blog, if you can...
Have a great Saturday.
That is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteVery clever idea to encourage the individual control sorting waste!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! :D Here no one cares about recyclin, it drives me mad! :( Grrrr...
ReplyDeleteHappy day, Rach! Hugs!!!
how innovative! where is this area?
ReplyDeleteHow wonderfully organized!
ReplyDeleteThat is an easier way than having all the different bins and bags. My construction trash or garbage is up.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea. Colorful garbage.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
ReplyDeleteOur recyclables go into a bin, blue for plastic , glass and metal; and black for paper (I think). Since one week it is paper, plastic and metal and the next is paper, we just use a blue bin. It goes all the same.
We are supposed to be going to a new system of green bins like Toronto has.
The green bins are for anything biodegradable, including diapers and meat.
Apparently, it is working well in Toronto... or would be if their garbage union wasn't on strike. The garbage is mounting up, there.
First time i saw and heard this one. We have our garbage bins in different colors. Brown for biological, black for residual wate and yellow for recyclable.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend. Tina
Wow that's a great idea!! Love the colours. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood thing to share. For Yohan.

Great idea to segregrate the type of trash!
ReplyDeletewow that's great. even the strings are color coded.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea for color coding.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet this system makes you very much aware of how much you use which items.
ReplyDeletesuch a good way to segregate the wastes. im quite impressed!
ReplyDeletei think, this is much better way than doing the color-coded plastic bags/garbage cans. my ph entry is up too.
ReplyDeleteThis is a smart and cost-efficient solution! Really great. Better than color-coded garbage bags, which can be expensive!
ReplyDeletethats a great idea. we should have something like that here.
ReplyDeletep.s Unfortunately i havent got the time to maintain the Drop Stars blogroll anymore, so i am removing it from my website.
If you could remove your badge too i would be grateful.
Thank you again for being my Drop Star, and i will 'drop by' again soon :)
what happens if you mismatched?
ReplyDeletei hope they implement that in the entire country!
ReplyDeletehere in ireland, we only have 3 bins, black for residual waste, green for recyclables like paper, tins and plastic, and brown for biodegradables/for composting. the glass we have to deliver to the specially designated glass containers around town.
That's great idea.
