WASTEND
Wastend is an innovative project designed to encourage people to take immediate action when they see waste on public streets. By leveraging gamification and community engagement, Wastend aims to create cleaner, more beautiful public spaces.
The project features a dynamic points system where users earn points for each piece of trash they remove and report. A leaderboard showcases top contributors, fostering friendly competition and community recognition. Users can unlock achievements and receive rewards for reaching milestones, making waste removal a fun and rewarding activity.
Wastend also organizes public cleaning events automatically. By analyzing user reports, the platform identifies areas with the highest waste accumulation and schedules cleaning events in these high-need locations. Users receive notifications about upcoming events, allowing them to join forces with their neighbors to make a significant impact.
The user-friendly interface makes it easy to report waste sightings, and the app provides real-time updates on the status of reported waste and upcoming events.
Wastend harnesses the power of community and technology to tackle the issue of public waste. By making waste removal engaging and rewarding, Wastend not only improves the cleanliness of public spaces but also strengthens community bonds and promotes environmental stewardship.
