Recycle bins in Turkey - recycle bottles, automatically feed stray animals

Love this idea. Coupled with spay/neuter programs... maybe we'll really make strides toward controlling the stray population and making their lives better.

In many cities around the world stray dogs are part of city life. One such city is Istanbul, where 150 thousand stray dogs and cats share the streets with 14 million human inhabitants. A clever device by the Turkish company Pugedon aims to increase recycling while providing food and water to stray dogs and waking up our kindness and humanity.


Can we get those kiosks here?
