I Care About The Environment
Maybe it's the Native American in me but I really hate seeing people litter and trash the environment. Nature is beautiful, I don't understand people how people can be so careless about ruining it.

I agree wholeheartedly.
On weekends, Ari & I walk 2 k's down hill to the local village, carrying empty horse-feed bags with us and collecting litter along the way. By the time we arrive, our bags are full and we empty them into the respective recycling bins provided by council. On the way home, we do the same.
Much of what we collect is beer can and bottles - so I'm guessing that most of the people who litter like this are either drunk, or trying to get rid of the rubbish in their cars so their family doesn't see how much they drink. Or, it could be ignorance; not knowing how much damage litter does to wildlife when it washes down into the waterways.
It's a shame that not all people cherish the natural beauty of this world:
they miss out on one of the great joys of life.
