As if cigarette packages, water bottles and Tim Horton cups weren't enough, now the streets and parking lots are littered with discarded masks and gloves. Disgusting.

This is another one of those "Have you personally seen it?" topics.
It's all over the news I know. And maybe I don't get out much.
But I do go to the Kroger or the Walgreen or the local produce/meat market about 3 times a week.

I have yet to see a mask or glove tossed to the ground, or left in a buggy.

I see it every day. One day as I was coming out of a store into the parking lot, I saw a couple pull off their glove and toss them. I yelled at them to pick up their garbage. The guy turned around and gave me the finger and continued to their car.

Out for a walk this evening there were blue glove on the street.

Butt suckers are the worst. Packs are numerous, but butts are FAR more so...

But masks/gloves? They're so far behind McDonald's or Burger King roadside trash (a.k.a. 'advertising'), it's hardly worth mentioning.

Good point. Gotta recycle these days.
