BBC short videos about recycling


In this BBC page you can watch 4 short videos (around 2 minutes each) about the garbage collecting system

in some cities from Italy, USA, Belgium and South Korea.
It's important to understand how it will change in a near future. More and more countries are adopting the "pay-as-you-throw systems", something unbelievable in Hungary, where you can decide whether to recycle or not without any economic consequence. The "pay-as-you-throw systems" calculate directly your garbage fee according to the amount of not recycled-not recyclable rubbish you produce.
These systems can motivate people to recycle as much as possible: less waste you produce, less money you pay.
