I see the same sort of problems where I go running, some people even hang the bags on branches of bushes and trees. Also to add to this moan, we have all been warned of the perils of plastic recently and since young Greta highlighted has the problem and more, so many people have voiced concern and worry about the problem. I have heard them in the pub, in our local coffee shop and our friend the teacher has listened to so many mothers also so very concerned about the planet.
And so to this evening! It's Halloween! Three groups of children each accompanied by an adult minder have banged on our door this evening. We know two of the adults, both professional women, their own children go to private schools, both of them are high flyers and ALL of the children with them, 13 in total were wearing cheap PLASTIC outfits! I wonder what they will do with them tomorrow? Will they use them to pick up the local turds in our area?
The teacher has told us, she is downstairs now having a glass of wine with my wife, that they will be concerned about the dangers to the planet of plastic from TOMORROW and then will move on to the next plastic bonanza, CHRISTMAS and then worry about the dangers of plastic again from Boxing Day!
Is there hope? I don't think so!
