Three separate places I went to at 8 in the morning. Gas station, dunkin' donuts, and then a convenience store. All of them, trash is full. People wonder why they litter in the USA, there's nowhere to throw away trash when you're out. It's unbelievable People can just go to work and choose not to do their job anymore. That people see this and they don't have any problem with it, no interest at all to keep things neat and tidy and clean. Nope.

The to-go and eating while mobile are a big chunk of litter.

A Dunks went in about a mile from a place I used to live, and where we lived was sort of a shortcut to one of the main roads from where the Dunks went in.

Our road began to be littered with Dunkin’ plastic cups, coffee cups and to-go bags. People would finish items and toss the trash out the window.

So taking things to-go and just throwing the trash down wherever is a big contributor.

I really wish that I could eat at a place like a dunkin donuts and cut the shit, basically.

I'll order one (1) sandwich. I have a reusable cup of coffee already.

All I need is the sandwich, I do not need a paper bag, I do not need a full sheaf of napkins. I will begrudgingly accept the little sheet of wax paper that protects the sandwich.

Just ask for that, they will oblige. Source: plenty of places I do this. While normally I find this bullshit cloying, in this case you have the power to be the change you want to see.
