Today I went for a run, and was shocked at the amount of litter I saw in a park. I have spoken about how bad the litter problem is in England (see here, and here), but my dissatisfaction with the situation seems to be growing worse. I spent some time litter picking, as there were bins nearby, and I noticed that the litter consisted of plastic energy drink bottles and discarded fast food containers. Perhaps the people that consume that stuff have so little respect of their own well-being that they cannot be expected to care about their surroundings or the environment.
