This no litter sign
Keep a grocery bag in your car for trash. Leave things in your pockets until you find a trash can. Even cigarette butts. They sell cupholder ashtrays so you dont have to throw your butts on the ground. Cool.
Fp edit: thanks for spreadin the word. I hope we all do our part to make things better. 1st fp post so i guess just send me whatever.

Fuck Duke energy they are god damn scammers and they are trying to get local legislate to raise prices further
TooDumbToCare
I teach my kids to pick up trash when they're outside. They don't have to pick up everything, just a few bits once in a while. It helps.
nsaspyingonuranus
Is the same Duke energy that spilled fucking shittons of coal ask into North Carolina river? Yeah - fuckk those guys!!!

Most cigarette smokers: “The World Is My Ashtray”
TherealNickyboy
From Duke Energy, a company that regularly litters and pollutes the environment. How ironic.

Why aren't cig butts biodegradable yet?
Grandis
Actually I roll the cherry off a cigarette and throw the butt in my back pocket.
muhvitus
It would be nice to know what the littering people think. I take garbage bag with me even when i go drink booze in a park.
purplepurples
Once in hey traffic I took note of what things were most littered. Nips. Nips everywhere.Terrifying. I’ve driven differently ever since.

My pockets are full of trash and i prefer to keep it that way. There are plenty of trash cans around.

The USA has become far to politically correct to let this fly. Someone's feelings could be hurt! The humanity!
trolliemctrollface
Lol now people will get offended at your comment about how they get offended about things that really only offend morons.
tarWHOdis
Cigarette butts are the worst. Smokers don’t seem to see them as trash.

Every day I see people throwing cigarettes out of car windows. I just want to shoot out their tires.

I keep a roll of dogpoop bags in my bag to wrap up garbage I don't want directly in my pocket until I find a bin.
epyonwing
Who downvotes a "don't litter" post?.....I found the ones who litter, apparently.
Bluegrasslass
I am 48. I work with people older than me who cannot put sugar in their tea without spilling it all over the counter.
SaneBrain
Would be nice if Duke Energy followed the same philosophy. Ash pits, no one will notice!

"Always keep a litter bag in your car. It doesn't take up much room, and if it gets full, you can just throw it out the window" Steve Martin

wait. Duke energy? Coal-Ash-Pits Duke Energy?
fivefootbeard
Yes, Duke Energy; the same company that spilled 30,000 tons of coal ash into the Dan River
AdoptedSon
It amazes me in 2018 people are still littering...

I have a friend who has no problem littering and I told him the other month "don't throw that empty cup out of my car window" he just 1/

Is there no interest in making cigarette butts that break down?
SuperPickle17
They are biodegradable. However, requires special conditions. For instance, about 5 years exposed to UVs.
MOAKDIBOAK
There are, but they are only available online and only for rolling manually.

Smoke straights.
WebsterPuddlesMD
No. Fuck that. Companies shouldn't have to. Stop throwing them out the damn window.
arwellx
My reply above was meant for you. Don't know how it got posted up there.
arwellx
...Where do you think they go when they are thrown away?
WebsterPuddlesMD
Landfills?
Biglebowski748
As a smoker I usually just stick the butts in my back pocket until I find a trash can.
MOAKDIBOAK
Sounds like something the Big Lebowski would do
Hammertulski
The Dude would definitely save his roaches...I don't think the Big Lebowski could easily reach his back pocket without Brandt's help.
Hammertulski
As a non-smoker, we really appreciate that. People who fling 'em out car windows and hit my car are up there on my Shitty McShitpeople list.
Comunistrussianplaguedoctor
I once was on a country road, and threw my apple core into the grass (bio degradable) but didn’t see the car coming. It splattered all over
Hammertulski
And lo, a loud “what the hell, man” rang out across the countryside

Duke energy gfy
NotquiteThereyet00
Yay good for them. I work for a power line company subcontracted to Duke
mstrat
Can't decide if that's "good for you" or "go fuck yourself"
Nomtombouts
Why?
subadanus
well they broke the crystal river nuclear reactor which had been fine for a long ass time before them so thats why i dont like them
bigeasy44
They also had a pipe burst in NC that spilled tons of coal ash into the Dan River & then raised rates to cover the fines they were assessed
JSee
I was just in Japan. There are hardly any trash cans anywhere, and yet it's immaculate. It's like they all agreed to not be lazy dicks.
Spartacus90
well we won the war, we can do whatever we want. ha.
NoLongerFoamingWolffo
That's especially impressive considering the population density. That's why I like countries that emphasize respect.
DidItForScience
We need to teach them entitlement, a lack of self awareness and disregard for other people!
yobego
Exactly like how the USA did in the 50s.
ilavalamp
Yeah it is crazy. You pretty much have to expect that anything you take away from a convenience store or restaurant is coming home with you.
JustARandomStrangerOnTheInternet
It's because they raise their kids to be a part of society rather than to be an individual.
JSee
Probably also has a lot to do with the fact that you can walk around at night without any fear of getting attacked.
eggmuffin
If there's no litter around you, you're far less likely to litter yourself.
vindik8or
It's just in the big cities they don't have bins everywhere, and it's a recent thing to do with terrorism. It's so fucken annoying though.
idowhatiwantwastaken
There are actually a ton of trash cans. You just had to learn how those crafty fucks hide them.
derekn
Cans & Bottles to bins by vending machines & bring your own trash bag dispose of at department stores or subway stations (bathrooms mainly)
idowhatiwantwastaken
I found legit trash cans everywhere. They are usually connected to the recycle bins.

Heard when anthrax scares were big they had one centered around a garbage can; removed them all, never put'em back, people were okay with it

Janitor ninjas? Cleaning in the shadows.

This was my experience in Japan also.
CongratsYouAreHereNow
The message to not litter is good, but the sign is annoying as fuck
JSee
It's truly impressive. There are close to 40 million people around Tokyo, not making a mess.
Chimaira
Man do I miss Japan. There for three years and I've been away for a year now. Want to go back so bad.
StankyPankySammich
Navy/Marines? My brother wanted to get stationed there and didn't get it.

I was at Yokota and hoping I can get back there.

The best one, Air Force. Haha.

I read on Imgur one time that they do not employ janitors in elementary schools, but the kids clean up after themselves. Idk if that is true
WithPride
It's true and it shows in the schools. They are filthy.
Goldenbukkit
It's true. Source: School transfer
IUpvoteEveryNicholasCageGIF
We have that in the Philippines public school but fuuuuuuuck. The streets are still dirty
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
Not even to clean up muddy floors or clean the toilets?
lafeye
It is(:
Somanyquestions
I read it on imgur 3 times, so it must be true!
ImaginationJuice
I believe they do have janitos but kids will clean their own class rooms after school.
QuackQuackAttack
I worked there. The kids clean up every day. The have janitors for deep cleaning, floor waxing etc
TheRockDude
Manga and anime have led me to believe that is the norm, yes
Martellus
True for school in the Philippines too. We clean our own classrooms. And once or twice a year, we spend an entire school day cleaning.

I had a different experience when I went to school in the Philippines unfortunately, a lot littering occured.
