According to the brief, individuals who recycle paper will be awarded vouchers which they can then use to buy books in various bookstore chains across Israel. The more paper one recycles – the higher the monetary value of vouchers will be.

According to the motion's brief, paper collection points would be set up across Israel, where people will be able to weigh the paper they want to recycle. The scale will then print out a voucher according to the "recycling deposit." Miller and Majadele said that similar initiatives are already successfully practiced in several countries. The Knesset is set to have its first vote on the bill in the next few weeks. Follow Ynetnews on Facebook and Twitter
