Why can't People Take their Trash Home?

You might know Grand Isle, nestled along the Louisiana coast. The Grand Isle boasts pristine beaches, unparalleled fishing opportunities, and a fascinating heritage.

I was at Grand Isle last weekend. I picked up a ton of trash on the beach. They are usually good with running the tractor on the beach, but they are working on a levee restoration project, and it is hard for the tractor to get through all areas of the beach.

As you know trash has disastrous impacts on the wildlife, just an example that ingestion plastic bags could block the digestive system of:
- turtles
- birds. 
- and fish.

Finally, why can't people take their trash home or to the cans at each crossover?

  5. Sad that others have to pick up the trash that lazy people leave behind. You wonder what they think when they just leave stuff behind or purposely throw it on the ground. Thank you for picking up after all of the folks who simply do not care

  6. People can't take their trash home, because too many people suck.

  7. Thank you for picking up the trash! People today are so thoughtless. The roads around here are full of trash. Years ago I use to see prisoners on the side of the road picking up trash. Now people volunteer doing it while they lie around in prison. Police should enforce the littering ban!

  9. People seem to forget (or not know) that you cannot throw things away - there is no 'away', things stay with us even when you throw them. SM

  11. I can't understand the mindset of people who litter. Perhaps it's not a mindset; just a vacant brain.
