The document discusses a proposed mobile game called "Recycling King" that aims to gamify recycling in Hong Kong. It would encourage residents to properly sort plastic waste by rewarding them with points and prizes for disposing of bottles at designated recycling spots. Currently, 85% of plastic waste in Hong Kong ends up in landfills even though proper recycling outlets exist everywhere. The game hopes to increase recycling rates by making it fun and incentivizing residents with a sense of competition and prizes. It would also help cultivate a culture of responsible sorting.
