I can tell that if littering wasn't a crime everyone would be doing it, so why shouldn't this be the exception that government gets involved in? I don't like government telling me what I can do with my personal body, and they shouldn't get involved in social issues, but I do think the environment does need an advocate who has power, don't you? Considering the history humans do have at handling species in the long run, most humans even in the last century didn't give a crap about animals or the earth and look where that got us. So answer me this: Why not let gov enforce policies regarding a better earth?
