Hong Kong:- open landfill
So, I went to Tai Po yesterday and we had a great day out, but I was really dissapointed to see how much litter the was everywhere we went... yes I may be getting old because this stuff relaly bothers me nowadays.... funny how things change. Dog poop, plastic bottles, crisp packets, styrofoam lunch boxes.... Seriously, don't children here get taught not to throw litter on the floor? especially in the countryside. It's hard enough to find nature in Hong Kong! You go out to enjoy trees and bees and flowers and even mozzies, but you get an open landfill... not on!! not on at all... I'll be teaching the kids at my school... drilling it into them. I want to organize a team of my students to go out in the winter and clean up some of these places...then we should educate people not to throw the stuff in the first place. Most of the stuff you can see should be recycled!!! |
