This post is not so much about the company, but more about a few its customers. Our working bees at Golden Whistler Reserve have always involved collecting roadside rubbish, including plenty from the golden arches, that other American multinational fast-food chain.
Roadside litter – food scraps, wrappers, cans and bottles, etc. – severely impacts wildlife. Animals attracted to the litter can be injured or killed by passing traffic. Ingestion of waste food can create significant health issues for wildlife. It is not unusual for birds and other animals to become trapped or entangled in plastic wrap or drink cans.
Not to mention the effect on the environment that the dumping of garden waste creates!
The answer is obvious, but will we ever learn?
