The answer is a big YES!!
The idea came to me when i was scrolling through the web, looking for initiatives i can take as a student at the familial level. 
my family was very excited to try out the new system of separating our waste. 
the plan was to use one trash can for wet waste, and one for dry waste, but we can be the ones to assign the colour. 
we used pink for wet waste and blue for dry waste. 
using this system is a huge help to the people who come in daily to collect trash, and can further be even easily separated, in trash collection stations.
