Technology can help stimulate the right behavior. This waste basket lets you monitor the state of your thrash from your phone and compete with others on a recycling leaderboard. The makers of the Qube, which is seeking €240,000 on Kickstarter, explain that the device has several compartments, a LED display to update you on the status of your cardboard boxes and banana skins, and a “clean air” system fed by air freshener cartridges.
This waste basket knows when you are cheating on recycling
