Litter disposal...

Ms. Ramsey I regret to inform you that naivete and ignorance
go hand in hand. The southern California town that I live in
is populated by tanned gods and goddesses who live and surf at
the beach all year long. The advocacy group here is Surf Rider
and their focus is on having clean water to surf in. It was
with some shock - and no little adrenaline - when I saw a couple
of guys in a VW van with a couple of surfboards sticking out
of the back actually open a window and drop their Mc-in-the-Wendy's-box
trash in the street! Thank you for pointing out that the best
information is education.
There is a small city here
in southern California called Encinitas where they have a trash
can beautification project that I believe either serves or benefits
at-risk-youth. The phone number for the Encinitas Chamber of
Commerce is 760.753.6041. Good luck!
