A combination of torrential downpours and sun seem to have accelerated the cosmetic changes to the rubbish in #LitterWatch2017: not only has the sign become completely sodden, but the once red McDonald’s container is almost white, the image of crisps has turned ghostly on the packet, and the orange and yellow balloon are beginning to fade. The cigarette butts, “biodegradable” balloon, and Lucozade bottle still look practically new.
I also grabbed this Hula Hoop wrapper for #OneADayInMay; I’m not sure how long it has been in the elements but based on what I’ve seen so far on #LitterWatch2017, I’d guess anywhere from 10 months to 10 years.
