Oh, I agree with you in this regard, but your take was... overtly simplistic in a crucial, key detail.

Concerning litter presence in general - as much as the poor manners the distinct absence of the bins strongly amplifies the problem. At least in my country (pretty large western country) - most of the public spaces (streets, etc) lack ANY sort of the bin, and while it's easy to tuck the plastic wrapper from the food and take it home, I'd say people are much less inclined to carry a stinky cigarette but or leaking can for a couple of miles.





Right. My point is nicotine addiction doesn't force littering.
