Letter: World is not your garbage can

If you can carry a full can, cup, cigarette package or food container, you can carry the empty to a garbage disposal, writes Brenda Auge.

Thumbs down to the folks who think the world is their garbage can!

We live in paradise at Christina Lake, yet in the last three days I have walked Thompson Road and picked up a bag of garbage and containers, walked the sliding hill that is littered with the cups, food containers and junk from a party, and now circled the end of Sunflower Road where people stop for the view and throw their beverage containers and food packaging over the hillside.

Wake up—surely if you can carry a full can, cup, cigarette package or food container, you can carry the empty to a garbage disposal!
