From this year Oslo has tried to make Oslo greener. It is a big project and soon all the houses are doing it.
It’s tricky in a big city with little space and many people to find a solution that works, but I think they did a great job.
What we do, all food and all plastic are being sorted in green and blue bags and put in the trash where you put your leftovers, and it all gets sorted at the trash-place!
You get the blue and green bags for free at your local grocery store and just throw your trash where you usually do. This way Oslo don’t have to put out tens of thousands of new trashcans and everyone is happy!
I have to let you know we already sort metal and glass, paper, cardboard and drinking cartons! This is just to add to that!
