P.E.I. group calls for action against littering as government installs warning signs

cbc.ca

A group in Prince Edward Island is urging residents to stop littering. Patrick Straw, a member, emphasizes the importance of keeping the island clean for both locals and tourists. They have started a website, Island Beautiful, to raise awareness. The group previously used a fake camera sign to deter littering, which they later acknowledged was not well thought out due to privacy concerns. Now, the P.E.I. government has installed a standard sign warning of a $200 fine for littering. Straw highlights the issue of fast-food waste on roads, especially during the summer. He invites others to join their efforts to clean up the community.
