The news is telling us that one hundred thousand tons of trash was left on the grounds after the Presidential Inauguration festivities were over and done with. The is a extremely large number, and it really bothers me that people would have left so much behind for the city to pick up and dispose of. Most of the items where paper related products and could have been recycled, can you imagine how much room all of that will take up in the landfill? Disturbing news to read, but I’m glad that I wasn’t one of the people responsible to trashing the place that day or responsible for cleaning it up for that matter.
