Inspiration

Are you recycling correctly? Chances are, you probably aren’t. While many people sort their waste into recycling, much of it doesn’t end up being recycled because items aren’t placed in the correct bins or containers aren’t properly cleaned out. When that happens, Mother Nature takes a hit, and we eventually suffer the consequences down the road.

What it does

You're Not Trash! is a simple mini-game that helps you get good at recycling.

In this game, you aren’t the recycling sorter or the green team member. You are the soda can. You are the bottle. You are yesterday’s newspaper. And your mission is to get yourself in the right recycling or trash container so that you can be given a new life and live to see another day.
