Botho Bins

Climate & Environment Prototype
Description

BothoBins is a smart recycling system that uses solar-powered bins to help people recycle easily. Each bin has sensors that detect when someone deposits recyclable waste and rewards them with airtime or digital points. The bins send real-time information to councils and recycling companies so waste can be collected on time. This innovation helps keep communities clean while encouraging more people to recycle.
