Dirty old town

The snow is melting and you are trying to get out for some walks around the nicer parts of your hometown.



And you see Tim Horton's garbage here, there...



and everywhere.



Tim Horton's likes to put words in our mouths, saying things like "Our customers know that the litter isn't our fault... but they would like us to be part of the solution."

I think it is their fault because they aren't willing to be an effective part of the solution. They keep saying that education is the answer (see below posts), when we can already tell from walking around and seeing Tim Horton's litter everywhere, that education isn't effective.

What would be more logical is to assume that people ARE going to litter, and figure out ways to get the garbage back up off the streets - which is where something similar to a "bottle return" system comes in. If Tim Horton's offered a $25.00 gift card for their own stores, for each clear plastic garbage of Tim Horton's garbage that a person picked up off the street, then they really would be part of the solution.
