Three separate places I went to at 8 in the morning. Gas station, dunkin’ donuts, and then a convenience store. All of them, trash is full. People wonder why they litter in the USA, there’s nowhere to throw away trash when you’re out. It’s unbelievable People can just go to work and choose not to do their job anymore. That people see this and they don’t have any problem with it, no interest at all to keep things neat and tidy and clean. Nope.
Or, hear me out… carry it until you find one with room? If finding full trash cans “forces” you to litter, that says more about you being an entitled piece of shit than it does about anything else.
“I couldn’t find a single vacant public toilet, so I did what any sensible person would do and took a shit in the middle of the sidewalk.” —OP, analogously
I swear there are less garbage cans in public areas now than 15 years ago. It’s probably my fault for for doing quick car cleans and dumping at every gas station and retail store.
Side note: garbage is expensive these days
Garbage is very expensive that’s why you want to build a society that doesn’t create unnecessary garbage
Personally, if I see a full trash can I will keep my trash with me until I can find a place to dispose of it. I can’t imagine just throwing it on the ground regardless of the can situation.
Japanese people do that as trash bins are very rare. It is an education issue and not the lack/full of trash binsy
In Japan it’s almost impossible to find a trash can on the streets and yet people don’t litter. The problem is the culture centered around consumerism and waste.
This. Throwing your trash on the ground because you can’t find a trash can amounts to childish entitlement in my eyes.
No trash cans in the forest, is OP saying they just litter all through nature when they go camping?
they just litter all through nature when they go camping
Many americans do just that, yes. :'(
A lot of people do…
Yeah, I fill up a trash bag every time I go hiking
