How Bad Is Your Litter Problem
My good pal, John from Blacon, has alerted me to an important online petition. It’s a petition we can all get involved with. More specifically, it’s an “In Your Area” online litter survey. It’s called “Don’t Trash Our Future” and it is designed to get feedback to the often asked question of “How Bad Is Your Litter Problem?”
Regular readers here on my Chester Lifestyle website may recall a few litter problem posts I have written a while back. Well, to be more precise, the posts were more fly tipping related. Still a litter problem of course. The posts I wrote were about the dreadful situation in alleyways in Hoole. The rubbish that was being dumped was incredible.
How Bad Is Your Litter Problem – ChickenGate
For instance, you may remember that I wrote articles about “ChickenGate.” As the name suggests, the articles were about a chicken problem we were (are?) encountering in the alleyway at the back of our house.
On top of the usual junk of bags of rubbish, PC monitors, furniture etc; somebody was also dumping piles of raw and partly cooked chicken pieces over a grid about five yards from our back gate. Absolutely disgusting.
If you do remember the article and would like a reminder of it. Or, if you haven’t read it yet, you can find it HERE.
To be fair though (he said touching wood), the situation in the alleys has not been too bad recently. Now, I’m not sure exactly as to why that’s happened. Are the Council visiting the alleyway more often? I’m not sure. I might ask when I get chance to call. Emailing may be easier, but emailing often seems to be a problem as you don’t always get an answer to emails.
Or, what we have also seen is that 2 or 3 house residents have moved out. It may be that they were the “ChickenGate” culprits? Either way, the alleyway is much better. Let’s hope it stays that way.
Anyway, back on to the reason for the post. How bad is your litter problem? Have a look at the petition below. Also, if you get chance, please spread the word by sharing this post. Many thanks.
