Cryptocurrency proves a huge incentive to recycle
While recycling may be second nature for some, others require a little more incentive to separate their food scraps from their milk cartons. RecycleToCoin is a new app that endeavours to increase recycling in the UK by encouraging users to recycle their rubbish for crytopcurrency. Once the user has downloaded the app (available on iOS and Android) they simply take their recyclables to their nearest participating store and scan a QR code. From there, users can sit back and watch their bank of crypto-pennies grow. These can then be turned into gift cards, Bitcoin or Ether, or donated to Plastic Bank, an organisation that helps to clean up plastic pollution worldwide.
