They sell things that come in cups, or with napkins. Lots of people cycle/run/walk here instead of driving, seems pretty stupid.

Taking away the bins doesn't mean you don't produce rubbish....

Edit: I think there is still a bin IN the cafe, but most people eat/drink outside. Lots of people asking staff where the bins are. Still hypocritical I think though? (And still mildly infuriating to remove well used bins!)

See how much garbage you can stack on/wedge into the sign before they put bins back there.

When I was visiting England I remember my grandpa and I walking around London looking for a trash can and being shocked at how rare they were compared to the US

Geniuses have no understanding of how some people can be dirty.

there is a bin in the café according to you lmao.

this is ridiculous tbh, protecting wildlife is more important than your convenience in that place lmao, you're annoyed that you have to walk inside to throw your trash?? wtf lol.

This is an interesting read:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0272494421001225?via=ihub

For some context: This paper discusses how more trash cans negatively impact how people perceive a natural space, but removing them without providing effective signage may increase litter.

A combination of effective signage and having easily accessible bins (for staff to maintain) near park entries and exits lowered the amount of litter and improved how people perceived the natural space.

Looks like the bean-counters thought they could easily axe the trash cost by shoving onto everyone else. I doubt it will increase the natural beauty there.

It's been this way as long as I can remember down at Moors Valley. From my limited observations there, it surprisingly works much better than you might expect.

Yeah I have seen a lot of trash cans in public parks that get ransacked by wildlife. Raccoons or even crows throwing all the trash out to get into a bag of fast food.

If someone can carry loaded food packaging in they should bring their own bag and pack it all out. It is probably better to lighten the load on the forestry workers by having a smaller number of receptacles available.

I wouldn't be mildly infuriated by this at all. I try to pick up any trash I see anyhow. It is convenient but doesn't bother me if I take it home and get rid of it there .

We have a commitment to producing no rubbish on-site. Well, we had one, but then budget cuts took away our garbage bins, so now I guess you have a commitment to producing no rubbish on-site.
