Krakow Replaces Salt With Coffee For De-icing

A squirrel is running on an alley in Planty park which was sprinkled with coffee grounds. Krakow, Poland on February 10, 2021. The city of Krakow, inspired by its sister city in Ukraine, Lviv, started collecting used coffee grounds from local cafés and use them instead of salt or sand as an ecological way to safeguard against slippery winter conditions.
