Good news! Many of those who dropped litter had bought litter offsets that will, with luck, stop others littering in future. And some said they are confident Negative Litter Technologies (NLTs) will clear up lots of litter in a few decades's time.😉 standard.co.uk/news/uk/bourne…
A UK litterer said, “Actually, we are world leaders in cutting one type of litter. But we really can't control the litter from things we consume.”🤷

One of the litterers was visiting from the US. He said simply, “The American way of littering is not up for negotiation.” 🤐
An Aussie on the beach brandished a piece of litter and said: “This is litter. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be frightened.” 🤠
People who consumed a lot also dropped a huge amount of litter, while less affluent people dropped almost nothing.

But it was decided not to focus on individuals. 🥳
Many less affluent people, who had hardly dropped any litter, ended up trapped under piles of other people’s litter. 🙄

Meanwhile the ‘high-litterers’ drove home and discussed the need for ambitious targets for less litter. 🤞
Someone who was buried by litter said: “Please stop dropping litter now.” 😳

A high-litterer said: “That's unrealistic. But technology can make each piece of litter smaller so everyone can keep dropping just as many pieces. More in fact.”🤑
