Why do people litter? Often, people litter simply because there isn’t a trash can anywhere nearby. Rather than uncomfortably carry their trash away with them, it’s easier to leave it behind. Such an irresponsible way of thinking. That is so lazy and careless. Carelessness makes people throw rubbish anywhere without thinking about the consequences of their actions. Many people do not realize the negative impact of littering on the environment.

Another bring-in site that is full up! It is both a good sign and a bad sign. A good sign because it means that people are disposing their waste properly … but it also means that we are using and throwing away too much plastic.

Trash. Trash who? Trash who someone else left behind. No one likes to find other people’s trash at his door, so it’s not fair to leave your trash lying around in front of other people’s houses.

Whether it is called a Sanitary Landfill or a Landfill Site or any other fancy name … a garbage dump is always a garbage dump, and it is simply a place used by everyone in the community to get rid of unwanted trash. It is always unsightly. Waste is disposed of in a manner that does not protect the environment, is subject to open burning, and is exposed to the elements, and scavengers.

On an outing to the Pitkalija, there were many vegetable hawkers selling fresh, local vegetables and fruit. There was a balloon was found flying. It was a blue balloon that belonged to Next, which probably was an advert. The balloon jarred in this environment and showed that pollution unfortunately is everywhere even at the Pitkalija. The title of the caption is an ironic caption to show that this balloon has no place there.
