This has been happening all week now. Why can't people take their rubbish home and dispose of it in responsibly? Is it because they are too pished or because the don't give a tiny rats derriere?
Disgusting behaviour but I suppose another way to look at it is it's keeping park cleaners in work.

They do it because they can. There is little to no enforcement and no effective penalties anyway. Why would you bother to take your rubbish away with you when you can simply leave it where it is?
Most of the stuff in that photo is packaging of things that people eat or drink whist out and about. Street eating has to be one of the great plagues of our time. It causes litter, encourages vermin and creates scenes such as this. No amount of "education" will cure the problem. You shouldn't need to be told not to leave your rubbish in the street. The only solution is effective enforcement and harsher penalties - neither of which is likely to be forthcoming any time soon.

Litter and rubbish on the streets is nothing new. I remember as a kid in the 60's turd hopping every time you went out.
I doubt that there is one simple answer to it. Today we have the compounded problem of plastic packaging as NJ has pointed out.
I do think sometimes the councils have a part to play in this - provide the bins and empty them.

I used to live facing a school playing field. The children (10-16) would always leave their rubbish on the field after lunch. I asked the school why they didn't make them pick the rubbish up - answer 'Unless we actually see them drop it we can't make them pick it up'!!!!! That was about 10 years ago. When I were a lass we never left litter, and still don't.
