Look, teenagers, I love you a lot and I really don’t mind if you like to go out and party in the woods, it was a big part of me growing up so I understand. But is it really necessary to smash beer bottles in conservation areas where people hike and climb and swim? Can’t you take the garbage out?
I live in Guelph so I get to travel to Everton and Rockwood pretty often and both places have recently been filled with Budweiser cans and Molson bottles! It’s disgusting. It’s this kind of crap that causes people to a) stereotype and say all young people at the park are going to leave a mess, b) Shutdown certain areas of parks or make it a ‘no trespassing’ zone and c) upping the security and the cost of using the park!
Seriously guys think of the future! If you want your kids to enjoy the space then we need to take care of it while we have it.
I know you’re probably too young to drink “legally” which is probably a factor in you leaving the bottles behind as they would be considered heat if your parents found them but please ditch your stuff at the nearest trash can or even leave them in one bag in one spot where someone can easily carry it out of the park.
Peace!
