Bags of garbage

The photos of bags of garbage on this blog do not magically appear. I fill the garbage bag up in 15 min. to an hour and take the bag to be picked up by the city. Most garbage comes from little bits everywhere that add up to one large bag when collected into a group. Photos height and width (March 26, 2024) now match original.

Nov 18, 2011



Garbage in the top photograph was collected at point A in the Cheval Blanc woods, then carried and dragged to point B, where the city has a garbage bin.
I'm following the arbitrary rules of garbage pick-up / disposal.

At point "A" in the woods, there is a roof size worth of old roofing tiles. Not rotting. Too much for myself to take out. This large amount of garbage needs a truck to be removed.
Today I took out the garbage that brought attention to the area. This means items that are visual, white or colorful plastic and paint.
The white (in photo of garbage) is from a rotten desk of some sort. White metal runners for a sliding drawer/keyboard.

I found painted wood rotting near by. The wood is biodegrading/returning back to earth, but I presume the paint is LEAD based. So the animals that live and grow in the area will likely have lead poisoning.

This crime will be untraceable to the idiots who dumped the garbage there in the first place.
The polluters children don't have to eat the lead paint , so they are fine.
Makes me think of a bunch of monkeys running a nuclear power-plant.

The city is unaccountable for the pollution on its land.
1) Proof it is poison, costs money for the scientific lab tests.
2) Time in court to prove it legally.
3) Taxpayer has to pay the cost of clean-up (moving it to another location)

The Forrest is eating up the old garbage up well, I have to say. Only invisible pollution will be left. People will be able to walk the area with their dogs, or use the area recreationally.
