The amount of litter here is astounding. Most of these people apparently have never heard of trash cans. This is a shot of the hideous empty lot across the street from my house. Piles of McDonald's cups there on the left, but the entire lot is full of trash. There is one lone tree in the center that has an ugly, angry red sign hanging from it that says, "No Trespassing". Maybe I'll run over there next spring and throw a bunch of flower seeds on the ground so it's not quite so ugly.
My house is on a major street. People will throw entire bags of trash from fast food restaurants, cigarette butts, soda cans and bottles and any other thing on the floor of their cars out the window right into my neatly kept and prettily landscaped yard. At first I tried picking it all up once a week, but it's so bad it fills up my trash can so now I just rake it back into the street.
Both my neighbors are businesses. They also have a hard time keeping up with the litter. One has two large planters with pretty trees growing in them. I have frequently witnessed people walking by and using them as trash cans and ashtrays. It's disgusting, I'm sure they get pee'd in as well.
Filthy, filthy people. I miss California!
