also this year few friends, other approximately 50 activists and me joined the the world cleanup day. many of them with their children, which is a very positive educational behaviour, isn't it? we tried to clean up the isar river banks in munich. as the city of munich provides a lot of garbage cans in this area, there is not so much waste as few years ago. and thanks goodness, we do not need to compare isar with the waste monster yangon river before the trash heroes arrived, too.

anyway, we found a lot of plastic, empty cigarette packs and a lot of broken glass. if you asked me, the disposal of only 8 cents per bottle of beer is not enough to discourage the drinkers to throw their bottles away. maybe with a disposal of 1 euro per bottle (which is more than a beer itself costs 😃), there would be much much fewer broken beer bottles out there, wouldn't it?
well, we also found some coins, but not enough to buy a bottle of beer 😂.
we have had a nice weather, so it was a beautiful day outside.
the biggest paradox today? i could collect much more waste in a huge waste bag on my way home from the s-bahn (metro) station neuaubing then 10 people found at the isar river banks. yes, there are no garbage cans in our part of neuaubing 😟.

let's keep our world clean ... and clean up after others too. somebody has to do it :-)
