Sun's out and the idiots are out !! It's amazing litter never belongs to anyone, you ask them nicely to clean up as they leave, without out any irony they say " it's not ours" ...just who do they think wil turn up and clean up !! #turnupandcleanup #keepcrammellinntidy #takeyourcrsphome #naturelovers #litterlouts #leavenotrace #takeitinbringitout (at Crammel Linn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRdnJZVJpiU/?utm_medium=tumblr

My not quite full bore Mr Angry Northern Ireland, no 4 letter words and no mention of the "the lads calling round " . It is my first thoughts as I arrived on site this morning after a heads up about what it might be like. 6 days last week we gathered rubbish, even to the point of looking for fag butts and bottle tops. No longer feeling polite about this substantial minority of idiots who feel they can do this with impunity Hope you all think your smart and funny, it shows just how stupid a bunch of ###### you are. You've been, you've messed up now do us all a favour and dont come back. Sure have a bit of fun, but for gods sake have respect for the countryside you visit and yourself. @discovercarlisle @lakedistrict @lakedistrictcumbria @cumbriacops @northeast.england #wildswimmers #leavenotrace #leaveonlyfootprints #litterlouts #crammellinn (at Crammel Linn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBJEhidJvPf/?igshid=ekg1va1bgcib

Nothing beautiful about litter but each piece of debris has a statement about the human that left it. You can picture the disregard. If I see litter I photograph it as you would a scene of any crime. Yet, as with anything ugly you kind find some beauty in it. Even when it is discarded it has still left its mark. A little scab on our all to fragile environment. Picture the wastrel that left it to mar the landscape. Litter is left by people who lack respect because they were never shown it. Litter is a real testament to the one responsible for it, as being unloved, and a reflection of the contempt his/her role models had for them. When conceiving and creating a ‘litter lout’ it says a lot about lack of love and respect within parenting.
