Garbage Bar Arco do Cego

Dear (beer) fans,

Unfortunately our project didn't work out the way we planned, but we don't want it to just die in vain. So now we are looking for someone, who wants to adopt our baby.

Requirements :
- Have a PC
- Be willing to handle the software without complaining about our crappy coding
- Treat it like it was your own

We are addressing bars, as well as normal cafés or individuals that care about the environment and want to make a statement. Because we think that's what we did!

Just write us if your interested as soon as possible!

Cheers,
The Garbage Bar team

Good weather and a finished project, that is something to drink to!

Did you know? The energy saved by recycling one plastic drink bottle will power a computer for 25 minutes.

Some facts about plastic recycling and how to. Take some minutes to read about how significant and important recycling is in the present environment.

Final score of the day:

SPORTING 451 VS BENFICA 617

Thank you everyone for participating in our first testing day! There are still some technical issues, one of them is the fact that cheating is unfortunately very easy, not to accuse anyone... ;) We will work on it, and put the device there more permanently next week. Bom fim de semana!

Excited group members: launch day is coming closer! I'm sure that smile can be bigger João, or maybe it's a German thing?

Progress update: One of the next days (asap) you will be able to find our project at Arco do Cego, feel free to come admire it and try it out !

Live update: cutting and bending some steel to build the lid!

Thank you already a 100 times for supporting our project! We managed to order all the components for the bin/device and will start building it. Keep an eye on this page to know the launch date. From that day on we encourage everyone to take as many study breaks as possible in Arco do Cego!

This is a sketch of what the device will look like. Two bins are covered with a lid. A sensor registrates every cup that is thrown into one of the two holes and counts the score.

SOON TO COME IN ARCO DO CEGO

Like the page to stay updated about our project! This page will show weekly results and be a platform to talk about and get info about the environmental issue that is plastic recycling.
