Plastics and other waste materials are harming the environment. Introduce your entire student population to a brand-new way to recycle through the use of a free mobile app that encourages students to recycle by offering rewards for good deeds in recycling. The Bottles4Bucks app communicates to any existing trash bin by simply adding a bar code sticker to it. Collection sites can be arranged as needed to sort containers of glass, plastic, aluminum and other materials of choice upon deposit. Teachers will learn how to setup the the free software at their school in order to educate students on the importance of recycling and at the same time earn money for their science clubs through the collection of valuable recyclables.
Stemwalkers.org has a mobile app which encourages recycling and sorting of trash in exchange for reward coupons. Simply add barcode stickers to existing waste bins.
