I have been watching magnet fishing and people love to toss stuff over bridges without a second thought on the environmental impact. Hiding evidence I can almost understand but not lawnmowers, car batteries, etc.
It seems deeper fines should be made to discourage this terrible behavior.
You may be misreading something? We are definitely in agreement but you frame it as though we are not.
The person I responded to said “It’s not a poverty issue, it’s a drug issue.” I made the comment to combat that ridiculous Reagan-era bs.
edit: Also the full text of the study is available for free at the link I posted. Encourage you to peruse it.
