You never see trash on the ground.
You MUST recycle in public. Like there's no just "trash" trash cans. There's a sorter station.
In the grocery stores, there's a HUGE recycle station just inside the door.
There's also a way to get a deposit back for recycling. I know this happens in the states too, but here it's a much bigger level. If you have a soda can that's got this funky recycle label on the back, you can take it into a store like the one you bought it at (say a fuel station) and you get money back :) If you buy a case of beer that's local (Side note all beers that are here in Bavaria are region specific, you can find Bud Lite, but it's only on post. Off post you get Bavarian beer.)
My favorite part of this environmentally clean effort is the windmills. They're HUGE! And the fun part is that some days they're spinning like crazy and others they're still and even others they're slow. Now this would make sense, windy day ... fast speed. Negative. The windiest day since I've been here they were moving slow. I wonder why ... if you know, fill me in ;)
