Littering has been an ongoing problem for decades which has an effect on the environment and this is a major problem in my community. In fact littering is done intentionally by the people living in the area throwing their recyclable waste in the streets instead of disposing them in the proper manner. However because the environment is not properly cared for compost tends to build up very fast especially in the market square in my neighborhood which is very unhealthy for the people dwelling in that area not only its unhealthy but gives the area a messy appearance.
