People would stop putting more trash in this thing as soon as the novelty of the noisemaking trashcan wore off.To make it sustainable, why not change it up- have the trashcan read the daily weather forecast or something... |

its just like the stairs that looked like piano keys and sounded like piano keys. it got more people to use the stairs. i thought it was really innovative. and i think it was from the same company

Ah, Fun Theory. Marvelous stuff. And lawl at the deaf people who didn't get it.
"Why are you looking at the garbage?"
"It made a funny sound!"
"I hate being deaf." |

The moral of the story is that people like funny sounds, and you can use it against them. |

It's so funny that something as simple as a sound in a garbage can will amuse us humans to no end! Great idea. |

Link: Your New Favorite Eco-Friendly Trash Can [Vid] [Rate Link] - 72 kilos of garbage was put in the bin during one day. That is 41 kilos more than the standard rubbish bin. |
