Hmmm... I am sure PS is ok.

Red and I are looking to move to Rutland, but the sale of the house just fell thro and somebody else has bought the house that we both really had our hearts on moving too. So its back to the drawing board.

Doc..... watch it or i'll get the train to leicester...... its only 2 stops away from where I will be living!!!!
I bet you are annoyed. I remember when we we where moving house, just one break in the chain and it all stopped.

Magic, you fox hunt. You must have killed a fox, or know somebody that has. Do you class killing a fox then leaving it to rot as littering? In my view it is.

And don't tell me I should be ashamed ... like I've said, a wrapper on the floor is hardly my area's main concern. And like I also said, I know it's not the point, I know it's the wrong attitude etc, etc.

If I lived in a nice place then I wouldn't litter but as I live in a horrible place, I don't see the point.
Where I live litter is generally OK. It isn't like walking through a dump but there are the odd bits of litter about. There are places near me which include long walks with no bins around. If I'm walking down one of those and its either freezing or my hands are full, the last thing I am going to do is cart an empty coke can down the road until I reach the nearest bin.
Cart an empty can of coke - OH MY GOD!
Why cant you carry a empty can of coke? To heavy?
Its ridiculous!

Sorry, i am getting angry!
Nope, I would just have more important things to carry which I've already mentioned. Hands full and all that If my hands are not full then I probably would wait until I see a bin.
Ok, so tell us what you are carrying. I suspect them come in packaging, could you not just put it in their?
What about put the can in a pocket, or simply just hold it?
4 bags in each hand and your pockets are too small. There is a little bit left that could leak out over your stuff.
Drink the rest, compress the can, chuck it in a bag. Simple.

And as for bringing in the fact that I have been fox hunting before, that isnt really relevant, its just bringing in something on a completly diffrent topic.

By dropping litter you could potentially, as Kiz mentioned, kill a animal by starvation.

I said the rest before, but the foxes aren't just left to rot, they are taken away.

Most litter today isnt biodegradable. It will be left forever if you dont pick it up

The other day I was watching Panorama and they were talking about bottled water, and its effect on the environment.

I didn't really think that a bottle that could pottentially only be used once, will last for 1000's of years.

Magic and kizwiz, do you both recycle?

And a lot of litter is paper based which is biodegradable.

Simple, re-use your bottle over and over its cheaper plus you dont need to keep buying them

Why shouldn't they? If you drop it on the street it's everyone's problem because we have to walk up and down it everyday.

It's also free will to murder someone but I think a lot of people would have something to say about that.

Thats taking away someone elses free will, it is completly different

Littering however, doesnt really change anyone elses life

and I hate being preached to about stuff like rubbish, its as they would say, a load of rubbish

Not at all. I'm illustrating a point. Free will doesn't mean someone has the right to do whatever they wish.

Bad example to compare it to.

Dropping a chocolate bar wrapper v murdering someone
A £50 fine (here) v life imprisonment

No contest really ...
