And, yes, I have a name for them, too, that I can't use here! Thank you indeed for caring and for sharing!

They pay a company to pick it up, so I guess the end justifies the means.<br /> <br />When I was 7 or 8, I had gone to the store and bought a treat of some kind. As I crossed the street I opened the treat and threw the paper on the ground. A driver who was stopped at the stop sign to let me cross stuck his head out the window and told me to pick that up! I never threw trash on the ground again. Really. What a wonderful lesson I was taught.betty-NZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950300478215339641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-54796236078397538452013-04-15T23:30:33.532-04:002013-04-15T23:30:33.532-04:00Good post Jenn!

There are too many other nice things to do.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-11855601796393362192013-04-15T14:16:06.556-04:002013-04-15T14:16:06.556-04:00I will never understand why people throw trash out...I will never understand why people throw trash out like that!Maude Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669688074743095866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-7166910450657425472013-04-15T13:39:26.527-04:002013-04-15T13:39:26.527-04:00A fabulous post, Jenn.

I hope someone will learn something from it, but the trouble is, most of our blog readers are people who already think as we do.<br />HOWever, in answer to your question: what will I do on Earth Day? I will probably forget it is Earth Day. I seldom remember very much for very long.<br />Sigh.<br />I think I'll ask Dick about garbage on his Lindy-walks. I could take Lindy's leash and Dick could take the wheelbarrow. We are fanatic recyclers here at our house, of course, and would never throw anything out the car windows.<br />Now, as for the light bulbs, which I see here on the right of your blog, I must ask him what he does (i.e. what we do).<br />Luv, KKay L.
