Garbage Assimilation / Müll Assimilation

avatar

Once I would like to find a place where there is no garbage.

Ich möchte einmal einen Ort finden, wo kein Müll ist.

Soboth Reservoir / Soboth Stausee
Carinthia - Styria

The place in the forest at the Soboth reservoir, where I found this bottle today, is completely overgrown and no recognizable path leads there. I suppose, someone further up in the forest threw the empty bottle towards the reservoir and it landed here in the moss.
The moss probably believes that if it grows over and into the bottle, it will decompose.

Der Platz im Wald am Soboth Stausee, wo ich diese Flasche heute gefunden habe, ist komplett verwachsen und kein erkennbarer Weg führt dorthin. Wahrscheinlich hat jemand die leereFlasche weiter oben im Wald in Richtung Stausee geworfen und sie ist hier im Moos gelandet.
Das Moos glaubt wahrscheinlich, wenn es über und in die Flasche wächst, wird sie sich zersetzen.

People, just take your garbage back home or at least to a trash can. You have been able to carry it there - after you've finished your bottle, it's lighter anyway.

Leute, nehmt doch einfach euren Müll wieder mit nach Hause oder wenigstens bis zu einem Mülleimer. Hintragen habt ihr die Sachen auch können - nachdem ihr die Flasche ausgetrunken habt, ist sie ohnehin leichter.

That's so true @zirochka - I cannot remember any place, where I haven't found anything.
People are so stupid - they go to these beautiful places because they love the nature, and then they throw their garbage on the ground, right where they are standing and admire the beautiful view 😭

But they are able to think at home, where they put their garbage into the trashcan, where it belongs to. Maybe they all forget their brain at home ;)

That's what I meant - at home they are all "garbage-free" in their gardens and backyards, but they change as soon as they are somewhere else. I hate it and often I have to shout very loud, when I see stuff like this in the nature.
Thank you so much for your nice comment, @wakeupkitty, I wish you a nice Saturday evening too 🙂

What I wonder about is why people get into their car with their garbage bags and dump them at my place. If they drive to the opposite direction their are plenty of containers. Truck drivers do it too.

Yes, the bags are there. Before I had a fence they even dumped it in my garden. In the end I needed two trucks to drive it to a garbage heap somewhere else because the one we had is closed.
☹ Now they don't dare I have a fence and 5 guards who do not bark but bite. 😄

I just cannot understand this: they keep their backyard and gardens clean, they keep their house clean - why not places where they go, because they like them? All they have to do is to take their garbage to the next bin.

Of course, you could build a wall or a fence around your forest, but this would not make any sense - what about the wildlife? I don't think, you are allowed to lock up wild animals in your forest ;)
Also there are hiking paths all around, which people can freely use, so fences or walls are no option.

Property Rights:

You do not believe in private property rights?

Bernie Sanders Free

Instead, you want to let people camp and hike on your land for free?

Vietnam Oatmeal

When I was living in Vietnam, I would talk to people about these kinds of things. Some of them believe in those kinds of things. So, in other words, some Vietnamese people agree with you.

Socialism Land

Some of them believe in socialism, communism, in the concept of letting everybody own everything. In reality, that is authoritarianism in disguise. If you let people hike on your land, who knows what they might do on your land.

Freewill

Of course, you can do that if you want. Ultimately, it is your choice. But it may come down to how you want to manage your land or not manage your land.

Landlord Responsibilities

But the responsibility is at least partly is on you as opposed to on every person. If you let people roam free on your land, it is almost like you are giving up your private property rights. I'm not saying that you are actually giving up your private property rights, maybe, possibly, legally, technically, allegedly.

Possibilities

But some people may do bad things on your land. So, if they do, then how is that not your fault for not stopping that? Well, technically, I'm not actually saying it is totally your fault. But at the same time, it is not like you are helping if you are giving people a free pass.

Rules

You should post rules on some signs.

Security Cameras

Perhaps, set up some cameras. Post on some signs that litterers will be prosecuted, perhaps.

Build a Wall

I would have walls.

Animals May Not Know

By the way, animals don't know if they are caged or not, that is if the cage is very big. The smaller the cage, the more likely the animals may notice, depending on the kinds of animals that we are talking about. Some animals don't mind as much as other kinds. It depends on several different factors.

Gate

I would try to have security cameras and signs with the rules. I may have a gate and let some people in at times. If they break the rules, I can attempt to prosecute them.

Up To Me

Ultimately, it is up to me to clean up the messes that they make, even if I'm not able go after them legally in a court of law.

My Fault, Even If It's Not My Fault

Ultimately, if something bad happens, then I should be blamed, even if it is not totally my fault.

I don't think, that you know the Austrian laws.

Can you name me only one forest, which has a fence around, apart from some precious nature reserve forests?
BTW this is not my forest.
I didn't say anything about wild camping, but we are a free country, where everybody may go where he wants, as long as he keeps to the rules. Some areas are forbidden for several reasons, but I think 90% of the forests and areas are free accessible.
We have defined hiking paths all around Austria and wich lead through forests and mountain pastures and farmland, which mostly is private owned.
And we have many rules how one has to behave. Some people don't care about rules, and if they get caught they will pay, of course.
Of course, there are private property rights and I have never said I wouldn't respect these. A private property is my house, ma garden, my backyard, my farm field, my fish pond, my whatever, but the wide open country is open for all.

Wish you a great week.

I understand that. I'm only speaking theoretically. So, people break rules. They pay fines. What else can you do? Well, you can try your best to educate people, which reminds me of that cartoon, Captain Planet. Now, people will say that the citizens of a country, like Austria, or any country for that matter, own the public places, national parks, the wildlife, like you said, "The wide open country is open for all." But actually, it is owned by government. Well, if you pay taxes, then you could argue that you own the land as you have a say. Perhaps, a tax payer owns the land in theory to the extent you can vote for the laws, etc. It can be a tricky situation. Rather complex. Some people do say that everybody owns the public places. That is the perception. But it is not true. Yes, people are allowed to camp, hike, etc, on allegedly public land that is owned by everybody. So, lots of people say that everybody owns it. So, during the course of you life, people would say that to you. It is a lie. But people believe it is true. It is possible that you believe in that lie, that deception. Many people do believe in that perversion of reality. Government owns it. Gov lets people do stuff on it.

I am sorry, but I do not understand you - I understand what you write, but I don't understand, what you want to say.

From a post about stupid people who throw their trash anywhere we came to the lying government - that was not my intention and I certainly do not want to discuss such things, which are different from country to country.

Everybody may have his opinion and everybody may say whatever he or she wants or needs to say, and I do respect your meaning. I also believe, that what you are saying applies to many countries, but not everything applies to all countries, and I do not agree with everything you say.

That's all, I wish you a great day.

Yes and no, because some people just don't care, and that's what is so annoying for me - the trash is also near trash cans. There's a beautiful forest lake, where I go for a walk sometimes, and there are lots of trash cans around the lake, but beside the trail around the lake you can find trash too.
People are just stupid, that's what I wanted to say, and some will never learn, even not it they have to pay a fine.

I saw the same thing in Vietnam. I see this kind of thing in some places in America. Yes, people can be lazy. Vietnamese told me that the trash people will pick up the garbage off the ground. So, some people have this attitude. It is kind of like having a dirty room. Now, your room can personify your mind. If you keep your room clean, then your brain may feel more clean. If people keep their forests, etc, clean, then the community can feel cleaner. But at the same time, some people can have a habit of dumping trash on the ground. It is in their psychology. Some people can feel dirty on the inside. In their heart. In their soul. So, they tend to be messy. Sometimes, it can be due to a lost of hope, purpose, meaning to life. Yes, some never learn. That's true.

Yes, of course there are people who get paid to collect the trash, but why should I throw it on the ground when there's a trash win nearby? And when no trash bin is nearby I take it even home.
I have been smoking for many, many years, but I have never thrown my finished cigarettes on the ground, like most smokers do. This is just another example.

ps. lovely shot! but i considered it about a different thing, before I opened it. i thought its about how the nature, using it force, ytilises, balances our garbage, making it a part of the nature stuff again (the subject I always like to watch, in others fotos, and enjoy to shoot myself). -- the thing, that always amazes me!

And if someone would call me names because of me of because of my photos, I would ask him for a reason. If I get a good reason, then I would take it as a critique and try to make it better next time, if not, I would mute and ignore him or her.

Plastic bottles are difficult to break down
Unless there is a forest fire
So the climber must take it with him
And the government should set up a place to collect garbage.
sometimes
Travelers do n’t want to litter
but, he really no place can to put garbage
And he was having a hard time carrying a large bag of garbage while traveling
So lost his conscience and to litter
So the government and the people have a responsibility

Yes, that is true and it should be that way - everybody should take his garbage back home.
There are enough garbage cans around and everywhere, but people are still too lazy to carry them the few meters. They let their waste fall anywhere.
That's a shame, and the land owners and the government should not made responsible for people who don't know how to behave.

Thanks a lot for your comment, @cloudblade, I wish you a great day 🙂

At we here,
Only a few parks have trash cans at the entrance,
Because this park is maintain by a companys,
This companie would send staff to clean up the trash can,
only in this entrance.

In addition,
There is no any trash can in the park.
And most parks,There is no trash can at thier entrance,

Because the government will use some words to tell everyone,
Those who litter will be fined heavily.

The government does not set up any trash cans in public places.
Because the government would not clean the environment of the park, so have not any trash cans in those park.

That's why many people say that they want to throw trash, can't find the trash can, and can only take it home.

There are really few people who are willing to take the trash home.

Every time I go for a walk or run, I would take my trash into my pocket and take it home, because I can't see any trash cans outside.

This place is no park or other public area - it is a private owned forest, where people are allowed to walk along the forest road. There are also some trash cans around. Most people take their trash back home or to a trash can, but some stupid ones don't.

The Government is not responsible for private owned forests.
Also the forest owner is not responsible for such trash people and he certainly does not have the time to search for trash in his forest every day. When they have work to do in the forest they will certainly also collect the trash they find.

As long as people are stupid and don't care for the nature which they seem to love, otherwise they wouldn't go for walks into the forests, as long we will have trash in out nature.

That's sadly the truth.
