Eco Consciousness
Waste disposal is carried out with almost scientific precision in Germany. Every city has containers for glass, recycled paper and tin. Hazardous waste, such as batteries and neon tubes, is gathered at special locations. Beverages are often sold in returnable bottles and are brought back to the store after consumption. Garbage disposal is thorough and colorful. Plastic belongs in yellow bags, paper in blue ones, and the rest goes in gray bins.
