Everything You Need to Know About Imagined Earth – An App That Pays You to Recycle!

Loading player...
Imagined Earth is a revolutionary company that has introduced reverse vending machines into South Africa which effectively pay you to recycle!

The world generates at least 3.5 million tons of plastic and other solid waste a day, 10 times the amount it did a century ago. Fortunately, there’s a growing number of people and businesses who’re starting to support the zero-waste movement, and this App is not only helping South Africa get there, but it’s paying us too.

We wrote about the incredible initiative but Good Things Guy Brent Lindeque got to chat to Imagine Earth’s Joshua Nuttall about what they’re doing; about ‘waste-preneurs’ and about how you can get involved.
