Ajishima Clean Up - Day 27

2/10/2013

Picture
Another intersection; two roads crossing means more traffic, more people and more opportunity to throw garbage from the vehicle
Today's haul was once of the most diverse:

Five car tires
Synthetic carpeting
Child's booster seat
Kerosene heater
Electric frying pan
Frying pan
Motorcycle helmet
Plastic shopping bags
Plastic food wrappers
Plastic 35kg fertilizer bags
Styrofoam box
Styrofoam instant ramen bowls
Styrofoam food packaging
Bottles and cans
Fishing buoys
Wire basket
Plastic bucket
Two stacks of manga comic books (paper pages decomposing, but

   plastic-wrapped covers still intact)
One big plastic trash bag (full of garbage)

Etc...

Even though I cannot read all of the characters on the bag, the irony is not lost on me!!!
I cannot read the Japanese character in the third spot on the top line, but the rest of it says "海と?を きれいに" or "Keep our Oceans (and ?) Clean." Thank goodness this full bag of garbage was not dumped in the ocean. Someone was kind enough to pack up the garbage from their daily life, drive to one of the highest spots on the island farthest from the sea and dump the whole ocean-saving bag into the woods. How thoughtful!
