I know it will never happen but ...

Dog poo is polluting in its own way Artdecogran, well it is if you step in it.

I saw a cartoon showing an old man with a beard looking down on planet earth, worried and shaking his head, and an angel is saying to him "Have you tried switching it off and on again?"

Callistemon, completely agree with you
Calendargirl, what does dog poo etc have to do with stopping the world for a month?

Farmers are upset that people are fly tipping in their fields.

People? Perhaps the wrong word.

Lots more dog poo everywhere. Disposable gloves just dropped in supermarket car parks. Fly tipping worse than ever.

Not all great.

I wish “everybody” wld appreciate the way the natural world is regenerating during this time, & make an effort to keep it that way in the future. I guess it’s an impossible dream tho.
(Sorry, I’m not meaning to sound “preachy”.)

Wouldn't that be amazing. If this pandemic doesn't make us press reset nothing will I fear. I have noticed far less roadside rubbush with McDonald's etc closed and less traffic.Wouldn't it be lovely if people remembered they had bins at home.Sadly I gather fly tipping is soaring as many council tips are closed.Why ?I should think it's easy to make a one in one out and social distancing there.I am dreading what will be dumped when we do eventually drive to favourite walks and beauty spots.

It sounds an interesting idea.

I'd like to see the whole world take a month to clear up all the plastic, flytipped rubbish and filth etc, once and for all and resolve not to pollute again.
