Pretty basic, really. City has trashcans everywhere, so one is bound to run into one eventually. It costs literally just as much effort to shove that wrapper into your pants pocket as it does to chuck onto the street.
Yes, if a) you were raised with such values? Common sense? Both? And b)if your city has a lot of thrash cans. I'm surrounded by a lack of both so the meme is accurate to the folks that keep trash in their pockets until they get to a trashcan.
Correction: your city has trashcans everywhere
The only public trash can in my neighborhood is at 7-Eleven. Thank god that mega corporate chain is taking their civic duty responsibility seriously because literally nobody else is. No other businesses are willing to do the work of maintaining a trash can, and apparently neither is the city.
Yeah, a public trash can is work. But in my opinion, it’s a worthwhile expenditure of time and effort. The service of being able to toss things in the trash is worth the collective price, IMO.
