This is a great time of year to be living in North Carolina. The temperatures are in the 70's, the flowering trees are in bloom and bright green leaves are popping out everywhere.
But there are two downfalls to spring - the pine pollen (what a mess!) and the litter problem. Johnston County, NC has a BIG litter problem. My question is: what would possess someone to throw an entire bag of garbage, or huge sofa, on the side of the road? In front of someone's home? It's beyond comprehension.
Sure, we have prisoners to clean up the trash occasionally. But that does not address the problem at hand. We need to let people know that we will not tolerate litter.
On another related note - our area has been, for quite some time, in a major drought. And every day I see people throwing lit cigarette butts out of their car windows. Wow.
