Bins & Pumpkin Seeds

THE WRITING'S ON THE WALL

"No pumpkin skin on the ground, use the bins!"

Hahaha. I was in this park in London and noticed this writing on a wall. I immediately knew what they were going on about. I too have noticed an increase in this behaviour. In recent times I've noticed a lot of people eating pumpkin or sunflower seeds and dropping their skins all over the floor. All over London.

The only saving grace, and why this isn't as bad as, say, cigarette butts, is that they're biodegradable and do vanish after a while. Sometimes they are naturally cleaned by birds and insects alike. However they do look very bad and cause a lot of visual pollution, especially in London parks and communal chilling areas.

What's hilarious is that bins are ubiquitous in London parks but some people are just allergic to them I think. Walking around the corner, on the other side of the wall, there was a long bench with about ten women sat there eating seeds and, you got it, dropping the skins directly on the floor. Of course I didn't photograph them.

Peace & Love,

I’m impressed ppl are eating these they are hard to find with skins. Tbh I never rly have an issue with ppl dropping organic matter kind of prefer it to the bin in a way as it just dissolved back to the ground
