Here's the accompanying picture...
The Bureau of Land Management recently released a report that outlines the damages on lands in southern Arizona caused by illegal immigration. Trash is a significant problem. Photo submitted by BLM.

Looks like the streets of Mexico City at the end of the day. (It’s only fair to add that they sweep it up during the night.)

One must include some indigenous aliens as well into this description.

But we can’t build a fence because it might damage this pristine environment we have down here!

I’m disgusted by Mexicans. They litter like crazy in Mexico too. I have no use for Mexico and the current crop of Mexican immigrants. Ones in the past were better and capable of being civilized by living here. Today’s Mexican immigrants are awful and that includes many of the legal ones too. Many of the legal ones are nasty uneducated peasant types
Mexicans have no respect for America or they are so stupid they don’t know how to behave when they are guests. And unwanted ones at that

When it comes to garbage, many of the people who immigrate legally or illegally have a very different point of view. We were walking into a WalMart one day a few years back when we saw a family of hispanics get out of their car with a huge bag of the remains of their lunch from KFC. The father of the group then casually dropped the bag in the middle of the parking lot and walked off.
My wife proceeded to pick up the entire back and secure it to their windshield with their windshield wiper.
Brought a tear to my eye...

Littering is part of the Mexican culture. That photograph looks like parts of the desert near Albuquerque.

About 24 million pounds of trash cover thousands of acres of public and tribal lands. The most visible items are drinking bottles, clothing and food refuse. Okay.
Assumption: A 39-gallon trash bag holds about 24 lbs. of loose trash.
24,000,000 lbs/24 lbs/trash bag = 1,000,000 trash bags.
In fiscal year 2007, ICE deported 221,600 illegal immigrants, including 84,700 who were convicted of criminal offenses.
Allowing for a 10% sick, lame, and lazy factor, that's 200,000 trash baggers.
So, sometime prior to being deported, every able bodied detained illegal immigrant (man,woman, and child) will be clapped in leg irons and taken to a designated trash-blighted area (not necessarily at the border) to collect a minimum of five 39-gallon bags full of trash.
200,000 x 5 bags of trash = 1,000,000 bags of trash
1,000,000 bags of trash x 24 lbs per bag = 24,000,000 lbs of trash.
24,000,000 lbs of trash on the ground - 24 million lbs of trash bagged = zero trash.
Et viola! Problem solved.
(Note: When the trash bagging activity cannot be carried out at an actual illegal immigrant dump site, the bagger can earn a illegal immigrant trash offset credit (say at the rate of 3 bags collected : 1 bag credit) that can applied to the clean-up effort. Maybe some enterprising Freeper can set up an offset sales brokerage and make a profit out of the whole thing. Thank you, Mr. Gore.)

But that is UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANT trash which everyone knows is actually GOOD for the environment.

Where are all the green groups, the radical environmentalists, the "save the spotted whoppee snail" folks, etc., etc., etc.? Huh? Hello????? Anybody out there???? (sound of crickets) I thought so. Rad-libs only get their drawers in a knot when there is a remote hint of American citizens possibly polluting. If the pollution and filth is from a "protected" and "privileged" "undocumented" group...not a damn peep from any of them!!!
