NC Can

NC Can is an aluminum can recycling project. Its objective is to mimic container deposit laws in the sense that it incentivizes recycling by awarding local prizes to top recyclers. The next steps for this project is to get a reverse vending machine in an accessible location so that the community can recycle their aluminum cans through this machine. A reverse vending machine is a machine that crushes, counts and sorts recyclables so that they can be more efficiently be recycled.
