To prevent litter in our city we all need to look to our own habits and ask ourselves – Do I throw litter on the street?  Stash sweet-wrappers in hedges?  Stubb out cigarette butts outside shop, restaurants or bars?  Or do I put my litter in a bin.  The only way to solve the litter problem is for each of us as individuals to change our behaviour and put our litter in a bin.
