Littering on the Beautiful Cape
On my walk back from the lake to CDM's this week I picked up a Coke can and filled a small bag with chocolate and sweet wrappers, with a similar result on the road from the South to the North Harbour.Well, one thing I know for sure, it is not any of us islanders doing the littering. How do I know? The appearance of litter coincides with the mass arrival of children to the island.The good thing here is that it was a relatively small amount of litter, which points to a startling fact - the majority of children do not litter and have a healthy respect for nature; the ones that do litter make up a very small minority; hanging on to this positive thought gives me hope for the future.
