This is not an egg

poubelle tri ovetto I was the first to think that said sorting, bulky trash said ... It was good to show some imagination ... While it is obviously impossible to ignore the different compartment that are the essence of said sorting bins, but - it was enough to think about it! - There is no reason to optimize space and ingenuity in design! A ingenuity that undoubtedly awaits its peak with the model Ovetto , created by Italian designer Gianluca Soldi .

Voilààààààà is finiiiiii ...

Back in the office, I spent my day complete demotivation return to work to clean as it should be all that my computer contained useless things, starting with 153 of my spam mail, a real treat ...

With this start up, I got off to repeat the operation in version slightly messy once back in my sweet home, which had the good taste to remind me that I had inappropriately failed to release the refrigerator of food a week of rest in the fridge had turned into joyful culture broth.

I will spare you the details of the most sordid horror film that food played in my kitchen, which allowed me once again thank the sky Brabantia for the quality of their garbage, I never get tired of mine ...

In Paris, I suppose, in many cities, the throwing its waste is a brainstorming session to itself alone, especially when one considers the question of whether such packaging has its place in the yellow bin (recyclables, trash to give a boost!) in the container or green (containing vulgar foul-run) ...

Le tri sélectif à Paris ou l'imbroglio au quotidien

Let's face it though, this practice also play a citizen has a significant collateral damage: the propensity to multiply the trash or what can take its place. (I'm a big fan of paper bags for packaging, despite their total lack of glamor).

Fortunately, the sorting bins to grow more and more, even though I continue to wonder why they usually have only two compartments while no less than four would be needed:

1 for alkalines (the mire of our waste),
2 for recyclable waste (those we proudly lay as we had better think about their outrageous expansion),
3 for the glass (HIPS),
4 for compost (to suggest to your condo / caretaker as a natural fertilizer for plants in the subdivision, you tell me the news).

Suppose they disregard it, yet not very common in urban public habitats, there are only a few FotoDesk practicing three-in-one:

The American Rubbermaid , with its plastic model that should probably do some cosmetic work but is still rather with its original shape corole opening, by foot, three-colored compartments and removable, all for a capacity total of 40 liters Hon.

The German Hailo with his model Trento öko trio available in several versions. Geometrically perfect, this does not trash Teutonic jealous and reveals, again by pressing the pedal, three rectangular buckets, too always removable and colorful, each containing 11 liters.


Obviously, if your space allows, you can also join several large garbage "classic" and differentiate them by color!
