We are, one can only hope that people continue to show it respect. Seems like so many car commercials show how wonderful it is to four wheel it blasting into the wilderness throwing up dirt and drifting to a stop at a spectacular overlook.

For me it's alllll the trash scattered on the highways & stuff. I find it so sad people get to live in an area like this & just toss their cups or junk out their window :/

Yes, I don't get that either. When I was in my early 20s I woke up to the odious effects of my laziness, so easy to just drop it out the window. But as a mature adult (mostly ha ha) I could never litter. Also, pick up after my dog, and unfortunately after other people's as well on occasion. What is it with us? Scandanavian countries, Germany, etc. don't have this problem, Japan is virtually literless.

Ya I find myself picking up trash in parking lots on my way into the store sometimes & every once in a while I think "this isn't my job" but it is if I want to keep enjoying the scenery! I guess we can sum it all up to some people just don't care
