In Germany, being eco-friendly is quite rewarding 😎
Germany’s Pfand (lit. refundable) system is a fantastic example of sustainable waste management💪.
By placing a deposit on beverage containers like plastic bottles and cans, it encourages recycling and reduces harm to the environment 🚮.
Consumers actively participate by returning the containers and getting their deposits back. This system has increased recycling rates and minimized landfill waste. It serves as an inspiring model for other countries aiming to tackle plastic waste and create a greener future 🌳
Many Germans also let their bottles next to trashcans in order for homeless people to get a bit of money out of it 💜 .
