3. www.bankwatch.org Bag system with motivation Nový Bor, Mladá Boleslav, Letohrad Separation: plastics, paper, beverage cartons, (glass, metal) Enables the control quality of separation Dwellers (have to buy) bags (0,15€/pc.) Each full bag = lower payment for waste Works in house as well as flats

5. www.bankwatch.org Home composting Biowaste = 1/3 of MSW Municipalities rent composters to househols and request them to seperate biowaste Signature of agreement Definitely lead to decrease of MSW Brumov-Bylnice saved 18% of MSW
