I agree that this is a huge problem...
but what can we do about it?
i tend to clean up messes when its my party, or if
it's a friends event.
one time tracer and i picked up every flyer that was
outside of the sweets ballroom after his event
dreamwave cause we didn't want the street to be a mess
and have the city mad at us. most of the flyers were
yarrows tresure flyers. i was going to return them to
his front lawn cause i know where he lives... but i
didn't want him to get mad at me, he's kind of scarey.
we used to have this same problem in high school.
students disrespected the school property with trash
and graffiti. i would walk around during lunch and
make the freshman clean it up. but what can i do in
the scene? make the candy kids pick up all the water
bottles? we could make money if we recycled them,
right!
i would like to help, but i'm not sure how.
