I was on a bike tour one week ago and there was this girl there that was collecting trash as we were going... At the lunch stop she was filling a black bag with just the stuff she found around...
Its pretty disgusting to throw junk away like that... but it can be worst. For example once I remember that they had thrown this new "poison" in the sewers and as I was walking along the seaside pavement there would be a 5 meters of clear blue water from the pavement towards inside the sea, you could see the tires on the bottom and everything!, covered with rats floating all bloated and sh%t with seagulls flying over them and snacking...
Now that was a romantic walk... Too bad I did not have a gf with me that day... That would make something to talk about later... Maybe we could sit on the seaside and look at the seagulls eating the rats whilst snacking too, or have a couple beers... Maybe a nice little picknick, or we could take a net and pick up some rats and make a little pile on the seaside... Heeey I know... we could pick our own rats and feed them to the seagulls like they do with corn in Venice...
Allthough they say that seagulls tend to be aggressive... I dont believe it... They look so cute and nice and they are classy eaters!
Like this but replace with rats and add seagulls with rat tails on their beaks:
Even worst then beer cans? These styrofoam cups... I mean why they dont make them all paper? How can styrofoam be cheaper then paper? At least paper will disintegrate in a couple of months instead of having aliens coming to earth 2000years after and find nothing but styrofoam cups all over the planet after we will be long gone throwing styrofoam cups to mars whilst making it habitable because of the heavy pollution on earth... They will think that we are the wackiest species ever!
Or these fantastic blue construction waste bags... You go and do a little contracting in a place... Want to maximize your profit? You skip the gas to the process facility and just place the sacks of scraped paint and empty paint cans in the forest near by... Its the -Green-! way to do it!
...and ofcourse everytime the trashmen are on 7-day coffee brakes eehmmm I meant "strike" you should not keep your trash in your balcony or garden... You should ofcourse place them in the huge pile of trash on the street were the can is now embedded in the pile of trash... It promotes community spirit... You can take your neighbours and throw a little barbeque or maybe hold hands and sing around the pile...
