Throwing garbage is part of the Lebanese charachter except if he/she was brought up abroad. I believe people in Lebanon take for granted all those Sukleen workers , that they'll clean the roads eventually so they keep on throwing stuff on the streets ... same goes for the beaches ... So the habit stays a habit ! Hundreds of awareness campaigns may not be enough to stop this ... It's sad but true. |
but how many awarness campaigns do we see ?
plus there should be a law against littering like baboons
and i'm sure a baboon can learn to stop littering if he gets fined 100$ for throwing down a cholocate bar cover on the ground regardless of whether or not the other baboons who work at the baladiye placed garbage cans yet around or not ;P
