Inspiration

We want to protect the environment, and found some rather interesting information about how people have misdone recycling that obstructs the recycling process. For example, some certain types of plastic are not recyclable, or broken glassware (glass cups) are not the same as recyclable glass, etc. So, we tried to keep the essential information compact and to the point, while adding more funky items to spice up the recycling hype.

What it does

It aims to be a "dictionary" for simple recycling dos/donts/facts/etc.

How I built it

Android Studio, java, and dedication.

Challenges I ran into

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

What I learned

I learned how to create an application in Android, although a rather basic one.

What's next for Pocket Recycling Guide

Maybe new games with hidden message? Map infused with locations for the nearest recycling facilities? Scanning barcodes to recognize products and ways to recycle? Recycling never stops ... cycling.
