I don’t know if it was posted earlier. One cruise ship was caught dumping all the garbage in the ocean inthe middle of the night when they thought no one would see them.

It just bugs the “H” out of me that so many people throw trash, well, anywhere and everywhere. My Dad used to rage about it too: Many of the “environmentally conscious”
students at our local university were some of the worst offenders.

Mind you, I’m not talking about an apple core tossed to the ‘possums and ‘coons. It’s all the paper, plastic, and metal refuse that gets left along roadsides, in parks, you name it, that infuriates me.

However, the solution is not to ban certain “convenience” products like can holders (6-pack rings), plastic bags, etc. Instead, raise littering & dumping penalties, and keep doing so until that nonsense stops. Also, I suggest a requirement that all teenagers participate for a couple weeks in something I did as part of the old “Youth Conservation Corps.”: We got to walk along roadsides and pick up trash — in 95 deg., humid weather.

Lol! I wish I had a dollar for every time I've voiced my complaint walking the streets here in NYC, with thousands of these phony environmentalists around.
