Pocket Watch Plastic

Why are people such litterbugs?
Well, I started off the day in good spirits, but now I’m disgusted. I bought a new bike over the weekend & took it out this morning to get some exercise & fresh air. Nice warm spring day. As I was riding, I suddenly became very aware of just how much trash is littered on the sides of the road. Fast food containers, water bottles, soda cans, empty cigarette packs – you name it. I even spied a broken watch & a cracked, kid-sized plastic football helmet. There is garbage everywhere! What is so hard about putting trash in its proper place? Why do people have to litter? I’m very OCD about garbage. If I have an empty gum wrapper, I’ll fold it in my coat pocket & throw it out later when I’m near a trash can. I felt like I was riding my new bike through a landfill.
all fast food places depend on someone else cleaning up after them.
that’s part of the business model — someone else pays for their clean up.
that’s part of the reason food is cheaper there — you pay to clean up.
Q. is it easier to fold up you gum wrapper? Or is it easier to just toss it? Note i’m not including whether you like it or not, just, “Is it easier?”
while it’s dirty where you are, i’m pretty sure there are many places around the world where it’s far worse. and more dangerous / toxic.
mind you, i’m not defending litter.
just pointing out the mindset that allows it.
and the fact that, if we allow business to charge the public to do their clean up, then i guess the public gets what it deserves.
