Clean up the Barmah Forest

Peter Wenden writes:

To all the morons (they are not hard to pick) who throw their empty stubbies into the Murray River, or on the banks or the roads in the Barmah Forest, don't whinge and complain when your children, if you're capable of having any, step/fall or gash themselves on your rubbish. Keep it clean. It's not that hard. It's people like you who will be the first to complain if denied access to the forest. The way things are going this may not be too far away.

I know exactly what Peter Wenden is saying regarding the rubbish in Barmah State Park. Unfortunately, it's not just Barmah but just about every park I go to these days that's afflicted by these brainless rubbishing morons! Peter's also right in saying that these rubbishing types are generally not hard to spot. So I send out a plea, right here and now, to all us environmentally and piscatorially concious people to make note of anyone you see littering, take down their vehicle registration (if possible) and use the EPA Litter Report Line to dob these pigs in!!! I've got the number punched into my mobile phone and it's going to be used I assure you! The number is: 1800 35 25 55.
