Trash Bins

Yea, its a slow blog day. 

Seriously though, I noticed some time ago that the trash bins are smaller here.  Much smaller than the US.  Why?  These are the questions that keep me up at night.

My guess is its just a different view towards throwing things out.  In the US, everything is disposable, and there is so much waste.  Logically, then, you need a bigger trash bin.

Now, herein lies the rub:  does our view of waste influence our trash bin size OR does our trash bin size influence our view of waste?  Hmm...

Where am I going with this?  It would be nice to derive some action item here, but for now its just a simple musing.
