People need to be responsible for their own litter. It’s one thing to have a lot of transitory people in certain areas but it’s literally grown adults littering in their own neighborhoods. There’s zero chance getting a compnsy to pick up litter will affect anything. It will likely make it worse because people already think there’s people picking it up. There needs to be a cultural shift. This is maybe the most disgusting thing about Philly and it makes the city look worse then it is.

A lot of the trash on the streets is just trash that fell out of (non standardized sized) trash cans during trash collection.

The businesses that generate the future garbage in the first place with their styrofoam and plastic containers should bear some of the responsibility of cleaning up the neighborhood streets where their packaging ultimately ends up.
