A huge waste campaign is launching today to help combat littering in Bristol City Centre. More than 50 eye-catching bins will be installed near food and entertainment spaces, transport hubs and parks.
The new designs include fun takes on song lyrics, gaming motifs, playful puns, and even bins that glow in the dark or play jungle music when opened. In addition, recycling bins for plastic bottles, cans and glass will be installed for the first time.
And to galvanise the public to take action, an art installation of a giant wave sculpture made of litter by eco-artist Wren Miller will be unveiled by Bristol mayor Marvin Rees, who has joined forces with environmental charity Hubbub and Bristol Waste Company to launch Bristol’s Binning action. The 4mx6m wave will be displayed in Bristol Harbour for three months, before moving on land around prime city centre locations.
