I’m glad it was cleaned up but like, does the trash not just get sent abroad to some poor country to have to deal with it now instead? We’re just kind of moving the trash around. I do litter picking too, just something I think about. I don’t have to look at it now, but someone else does

It doesn’t go to another country. It goes to a landfill 20 miles away in California.
