Pay with plastic bottle

Beijing’s subway authorities have introduced reverse vending machines which allow travellers to offset their transit costs by recycling.

Passengers insert a plastic bottle, wait twenty seconds until the bottle is crushed to a third of its original size.

The company plans to install 3, 000 such machines across the city. They’ll expand to other subway lines, schools, residential areas, bus stops and shopping malls. Similar machines will soon be installed in bus stops as well.
