British fashion designer Paul Smith and Design Museum director Deyan Sudjic today unveiled a five-foot "rabbit bin." Whenever a passerby drops rubbish in the bin, the bunny's ears light up. The bunny is part of the Design Museum Super Contemporary Exhibition in Covent Garden. I love the concept of making civic responsibility (such as keeping your city clean) whimsical and fun. Perhaps the streets of my fair city would be a little cleaner if there were rabbit bins here.

Would you want a rabbit bin in your town?

so cute! I miss Covent Garden
1I don't know about a rabbit trash can, but I remember there was a Wegmans we went to while in college that had a trash can that said "thank you" after you throw something away.
2Well I am from Conway, Arkansas, so I think it'd be neat to have one but rather than than a rabbit, a big toad (we are famous for the Toad Suck Daze festival they do every year!)
3It would be cute for parks, and like thotfulcitizen said, other animals would be fun too!
4Ha different.
5I think it's cute. And it would encourage kids to throw their trash away.
6Pshh old news! When I was little, there was a park in my home town with a stone dragon, and you could throw trash in his mouth, and his eyes would light up and he'd say "Thank you! Feed me more!" or something like that.
