Ideas to help people clean up their garbage


Regarding trash left by campers, maybe we should follow Thailand’s lead. They send trash back to its owners with a note saying “you forgot this” at such and such campsite. They also blacklist visitors who damage national parks. People caught littering can be fined up to $16,000 or held in jail for up to five years!

We are too soft here in the U.S. Go Thais!
