Fly tipping

A back lane just off the main road in Acoteias littered with several piles of broken tiles & bricks. Lovely

They are too lazy. Around the back from me there are piles of builder's rubble everywhere along the dirt tracks. Less than a quarter mile away is a recycling place.

The amount of general litter and flytipping here is many times worse than anywhere I have ever been, except possibly Morocco.

How horrible.

Varzea da Orada Thursday. This foam insulation will decompose and eventually be blown all over the place.

The dump in my November post has been cleared but this is not far away, taken yesterday.

Some irresponsible builder who can't be bothered to take it to the appropriate place & flourescent tubes are dangerous when they explode &  break. Disgraceful.

The pile of rubble and lighting tubes pictured in my post dated 27 April is still there. Saw these yesterday afternoon in the same area, this is a composite of three pictures taken within five minutes of each other. Obviously these people live here and have no regard whatsoever for their country. They are selfish and lazy.

Fly tipping, litter, call it what you will. Parts of this area are disgusting and that's because of the disgusting people. I have to blame residents for this below. It's not the kind of stuff that tourists would dump. Sheets of plastic, paper, old cardboard boxes, bags of old clothes all strewn around not 10 metres from these bins at Vale de Parra. Not to mention that it is impossible to walk two metres along that road without seeing plastic bottles, food containers and cigarette packets that have been tossed out of car windows. Why is this condoned? Why is nothing done to clear up the mess??
