Thereās a few things to note about these neighborhood cleaning campaigns:
Wouldnāt this Not make a big company look better since nobody would know the big company is involved. š
The part of the city they clean up is pretty dirty from trash.
I have thought these endeavors encourage the city gov to do even less.
Because their drink packaging keeps accumulating in the ocean, in landfill, everywhere else that isnāt the beach.
Meanwhile, Big Drink continues to lobby governments against effective measures such as container deposit/pfand and/or reusable container systems.
Itās better for their marketing image if they donāt acknowledge that they acknowledge that itās a problem.
Thatās general knowledge people need to know but, is it the case with this one? Also, regardless of its origin getting a public area cleaned is better than not getting cleaned at all.
I donāt know about this one which is why i put this skeptical disclaimer :)
I agree cleaning your community is good. I just think itās worth it to frame this activity/discussion as a political one which has more ramifications than appears.
