Enduring innovations are often simple and improve over time. This is certainly true for Molok waste containers. Who would have thought 30 years ago that a waste container called Molok produced in a small village workshop set up in an old barn would set out to change traditional waste management and win the hearts of millions of people around the world. The inventor of the Molok system, Finnish entrepreneur Veikko Salli, trusted in his unique idea and developed a waste container that is partially underground. The system follows the same logic as good old underground cellars: as the containers remain cool and protected from sunlight, the microbial activity inside the waste container is reduced, slowing down the decomposition process.

The work of the garbage truck driver is considered a tough job, where the full waste bins are pulled manually to the truck and empty bins are put back into place. Bin transfer is often hampered by thresholds, uneven surfaces and winter snow.

****
**Recycling of plastics is worthwhile, as recycling can supply the raw material to save up to 85% of the energy that new plastic would consume in oil refining. Recycled plastics are the simplest way to make new plastics and by more recycling of plastic products, fewer new oil wells need to be drilled for plastic production.**
