Candy wrappers, tissue, and a piece of paper are the usual things that I see on the street being flown away by the wind. Whenever I travel I always have a candy in my bag but if I eat that candy I always fold the wrapper carefully and put in the pocket of my bag or jeans pocket. When I get home I put it in the trashcan. This became a habit already that was taught to me when I was in the primary years. It was a strict discipline around the campus to have a clean environment. Since then I realized that even I am only one I can prevent too much garbage disposed improperly.
What about you? What do you do with your trash if there's no trashcan around? Share your ideas and experience so that we'll be able to save the environment. Thank you in advance =)

I am glad you are an environment saver too. Yes, if its something small and would fit to our pocket or bag, place it there first but if something big, do look for a bin. Thanks for responding =)

Thats always a good idea. If it fits in our bags, why not keep it until we see a trash bin. Thank you for responding. have a nice day!

I will do the same as you, I will keep it in my bag until I find a trashcan or I will take it home and dispose of it with the rest of my trash. That is the right thing to do. I think it is irresponsible to drop anything in the street and expect someone else to pick it up.

That is very nice of you. I hope there will be more people like us. These little trash that I mentioned are very difficult to remove from the ground. Thank you for responding and being a responsible citizen. Take care =)
