The first devices for collecting plastic have already appeared in the city of Oulu, but within three months their number will be increased to 500. It is assumed that these items will be created in every settlement, whose population exceeds 10 million people (only Finland has about 5.5 million).
Wishing to get rid of plastic waste and a little money will now be able to pass not only bottles, but the packaging (e.g. yogurt, butter, cheese, packages and wrappers. For recycling to be given and bottles of various detergents. The main condition is to keep them clean and dry.
