Wish litterbugs would hibernate over winter

Between Wendy's and Timmy Ho's in Perth, we get a lot of garbage dumped overboard. We are one large coffee, or 1 1/2 hamburgers south of town!
This latest customer seemd to supersize his order: one iced tea and hamburger and cheeseburger, plus fries.

Wendy's hamburger dumped overboard

Bought it at 11 pm, chucked it out,
I found it the next day
After the snow melted, I did a major cleanup. April, 2011

And again in the fall, several bags full.
They rolled the rim
and chucked it overboard.
 I emailed Wendy's to complain, heard nothing. I even put it out on Twitter, nada.

I shall have to go into the store...
Tim Horton's is the same. They need to come up with a strategy for challenging this issue.
We can't teach some how not to litter, but maybe there is a way to deter them.

Digging out after the storm

Everyone made it through the snow and wind!

Olive,
 the other reindeer looks like a sheep!


Frosty O'Rourke all dressed up

 But look, something in the driveway...
Doesn't it look pretty? 

We KNEW we'd get more snow in February!
500 m of highway and they chuck it on our drive.
How far away are we from Wendy's in Perth? About 1 1/2 hamburgers and 1/2 a box of fries. The rest they chucked out of the truck. My regular readers know that I spend hours picking up garbage from the ditches, two or three times a season after the snow flies.


Two supersized orders with fries,
 and they didn't finish, either.




Wendy's Perth at 10:57 p.m.


Usually around Earth Day in April, we'd do a school project.

Look at the Wendy's containers we found. 
As a teacher, we would collect schoolyard garbage,
sort it and graph it.
Do you know how many containers I have picked up?
At least a recycling bin, or two, and a bag of garbage, each time I go out. Criminal.
