Putting litter into bins could soon win people in Edinburgh prizes of £100.
The city council has signed up to a lottery scheme which awards cash prizes every month for helping to keep the streets tidy. LitterLotto is a free-to-enter prize draw, with regular spot prizes and jackpots, supported by brands who want a cleaner environment.
People are invited to download an app, then take pictures of themselves putting rubbish into a litter bin and upload the images, which are then automatically entered in the monthly draw. Each month there will be a £100 Edinburgh prize and a £1,000 Scotland-wide prize.
I find it baffling that something like this is even needed. Putting garbage in the bin is so basic it feels dumb to reward it with money xP
I guess the stick isn’t working, trying a carrot instead.
