The town of Barcarès (Pyrénées-Orientales) had a fun idea to encourage tourists visiting its beaches not to throw their plastic bottles anywhere.
In order to ensure that as much of its waste as possible will be collected and recycled, the municipality has installed giant containers in the shape of animals and in bright colors.

Holidaymakers can in particular throw their plastic in a turtle or one of the ten whales installed, indicates
Actu Perpignan
this Saturday.
The receptacles are themselves made with eco-responsible materials.
The goal being to fight against aquatic pollution, the choice of these two species makes perfect sense.
A visible result at the end of the year
The containers and the plastic thrown into them will have a use well beyond the summer holidays.
The waste recycled thanks to the device will indeed be transformed into chips.
These will then be used to produce the light decorations adorning the city at the end of the year.
Residents will be able to admire them for the first time this winter.
