Part 1 – Litter/Garbage

Why do some people throw litter/garbage on the street?

The only explanation/reason I can give is laziness. They can’t be

bothered to* look for a bin or take their rubbish home with
them.

What do you do with your litter/garbage?

Well, first of all I look for a bin to put it in but if I can’t find one
then I take it home with me. I absolutely cannot throw it on the

ground, it is not in my nature**.

**be unwilling to make the effort needed to do something

**it is not something I would do

How do you feel when you see people throw litter/garbage?

Oh, this is one of my pet hates. It infuriates/annoys me so much
when I see the streets littered with rubbish. It really drives me

insane/crazy.

Do you think your city is clean or not?

It’s far from perfect, but I’ve seen dirtier places. There are fines

in my country so this keeps it clean to a certain extent, but

people still drop litter.
