The Not So Neat Streets In the Cities

Construction and Industrial
Look around your local city streets and highways. Trash and litter is everywhere. New, pristine areas where we begin building and living soon become littered with trash and debris. The sound of diesel pressure washers washing off graffiti is an all too familiar sound. It is heart breaking that we humans leave such a horrible footprint on the world in which he inhabit. The older and larger the city, the more deep and disgusting the trash. There are old mattresses, shredded tires, and large chunks of accident and construction debris slowly filling up the sides of our roads. When will it finally be addressed? When we have to stop our cars, get out and move it out of the way ourselves? I find it personally bothersome that it isn’t more bothersome for the general public. Any community that is kept up and clean is certainly a nicer community to live in. Having said that, however, this means a level of individual and group commitment is required to make that a priority. We must pick up after ourselves. We should be using trash receptacles, and we should be making sure that items we are toting around in the back of a truck are adequately tied down. We shouldn’t be throwing trash from our cars while driving, and we should be enforcing fines for littering as we enforce fines for everything else. Our environment is a fragile thing of beauty and should not be used as a trash can. Keep things beautiful for future generations.
