Oh, I was watching 'We Bare Beers' cartoons along with my kids this morning. And in that episode, these three cute creatures were obsessed with collecting recyclable bags. I really enjoyed and liked the message they were tyring to convey.. Like, be planet-friendly!
Putting a band aid on a traumatically amputated leg scarcely rises to the level of good intentions even.
One thing that would help is maybe putting trash cans on streets on every corner. Not just main streets. I don't mind picking up an errant plastic bag or plastic bottle off the sidewalk, but give me a place to deposit those things. K? Thx.
Also my apartment building put those enormous recycling bins outside the main doors but I rarely see anyone use them other than the bar across the street who deposits many beer, wine, and alcohol bottles in them right around 0330 hours.
