Actually I like recycling because I makes me feel a better person. I had 7 boxes in Sweden to recycle almost everything: cardboard, paper, colored glass, transparent glass, hard plastic, soft plastic, wood and similar hardware. But each one had its own litter box with a picture of what goes inside. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pim.famnit.upr.si\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/litter-box1.jpg\" class=\"no_float\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now I have <strong>two identical boxes and no sign of what goes in<\/strong>. Lets look at the example that often happens to me. Every two weeks the <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pim.famnit.upr.si\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/litter-box2.jpg\" \/>boxes are emptied. I know that the plastic goes in the black one. If I want to put in some paper I choose one of the yellow boxes. Then I want to put in some cardboard and I have to check which one is empty. I want to put in some glass later, I have to check the leaflet (which is now hanged on the door to the backyard where the boxes are) if it goes with paper or cardboard and I have to find out in which of the two boxes contains cardboard. An so on. So every time I first check the leaflet to see what goes where and then I have to find the proper yellow lid. <\/p>\n<p>It might be only me but I really think it&#8217;s stupid to go through this process every time. I thought of <strong>simplifying the procedure with writing or drawing a picture on the lid of what goes in the box<\/strong>.&nbsp; But none of the neighbors has done something similar and I&#8217;m not sure if I can do it (city council&#8217;s property). Then <strong>I decided to have paper in the left and cardboard in the right box<\/strong>. But <strong>I can&#8217;t <\/strong>never <strong>remember what I have decided<\/strong> and mix the two again and again. So I gave up.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, city council has come to help me. As of August&nbsp; they changed the rules:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Green box with yellow lid:<\/strong> Plastic bottles, tins, cans, glass bottles and jars<\/li>\n<li><strong>Black box with red lid:<\/strong> Newspapers, magazines, office paper, junk mail, cardboard, catalogues and telephone directories<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There will be only two boxes of different color and lids :).
