I personally hate littering anywhere. But I DESPISE seeing litter in the forest/woods/nature/etc. I generally don't clean up litter in or near cities when I see it, but I have been known to clean up other street kids mess after we were all chillin/panhandling on the sidewalk...you never know who's been watching you, and its just good manners. Also, being a surfer - and spending a lot of time in the water - I've picked up trash a lot on beaches. It really saddened me to see all the trash/litter when traveling thru central America. Even in people's own yards. I remember when traveling on ferry boat to the island of Ometepe - a beautiful volcanic island in the middle of this freshwater lake in Nicaragua, and it was common place for old and young alike to toss their empties and wrappers overboard. like WTF?!?!? don't you have more respect for the area you live in
 
You need to watch this doc... it's good.

I completely agree..
I met this guy in Idaho a lil while ago and we were sitting by a river, he pulled out some dye to make his hair blonde.
Ended up throwing the bottle, box, and everything into the stream..
I was shocked, I shoulda pushed his ass in.
So many people just throw their fucking trash everywhere..
Lame
 
Left Memphis some hours back now I'm Nashville an hey what do you know more trash I can't wait to get to the rockys people don't do this shit over there.
 
I was pretty young when I saw this commercial in the 70's. I went ice fishing with an Indian last year who threw his cigarette butts and trash on the ice. Go figure.

Okay... I am gonna play devils advocate here for a second on the topic of littering...

And believe me this just hit my cranium right now after Mmmmmmichaels comment on fishing.

If you think about the way nomadic and primitive human societies worked... they did not have the same concern of "littering" that we do in modern society.

Back in more primitive times... I bet everything except say metal objects were quickly decomposed even when discarded... and all materials were of a more natural composition that did not harm the environment when discarded.

(For example that Styrofoam cup... used to be a clay cup or banana leaf woven cup... that plastic spoon used to be a twig or branch carved or even a piece of stone flint to scoop food... or even in closer modern times... a metal... like lead...(not that that was good for ya...lol) )

So humans might have it by now to a certain extent hardwired into them (nature nurture remember? our environment often encodes behaviors to generations to come... look up epigenetics) to discard objects/consumables that they deem to be insignificant... and they simply for the most part have not caught up with the fact that the materials and technology we use to produce quick disposable items is not compatible with our environment and habitation. Added to the fact that most modern humans are also verily far removed from the "earth habitat"
And also SUPERCHARGE that with the fast paced consumerism of today's society...

Sigh... then

I don't find it surprising that we are a bunch of trash producing zombies.

Wake up.
 
I wonder what the next dominant species will think about all our crap after we go extinct....
 
i don't see how epigenetics has anything to do with it. it seems to me to be an easy excuse for lack of respect and being lazy (i.e. not wanting to pack your trash out).
 
Burning it will cause more pollution.. With more of it being created every day there's no real incentive to care since it seems like no matter how much we clean up there will be more.
 
Okay how can I compose my thoughts on this.

@iamwhatiam

Take an archaeological site. Like something of a primitive village with a fire pit.
When you do a dig on one of those how do you often learn about it?

Through the discarded trash.

Pieces of broken pottery. Bones of animals the group of nomads ate. Beads and shells and petrified junk.

So when I say epigenetics. I am looking at, or saying that the influence of thousands of years of human development have coded certain behavior into people.

ie... "discard that which is insignificant"

I don't have any proof, I'm not a scholar or professor. I'm just throwing out an idea.

I am also not making an excuse for those that are lazy and disrespectful.
In todays world most of us are aware and educated enough to be responsible for actions of ours that impact the environment.

I'm just throwing out a possible contributing factor.
Illustrating, if, when we don't take the effort to think... tossing a piece of trash can be like a primitive reflex?
 
Perhaps instead of having a standoffish attitude towards the mounds of trash we should make like the trash diggers in that article posted by Tude a few days ago and become comfortable with the trash. Only then can we begin to turn it into something useful

The trash has to go somewhere. I'd rather see it in a huge mound somewhere than scattered throughout nature/wilderness. Instead of becoming comfortable with trash, maybe we should learn to stop making so much of it in the fucking first place?
