Now they need to be picked up by public works and not become part of the problem.

Public Works does not pick up garbage. That is the responsibility of VIWMA.

You've got to be kidding?
VI Nice must have some loose screws at the top.
Why spray paint garbage instead of taking it to the dump?
Truly absurd.

I think the hefty dose of irony has been missed.

Thanks for the pics Cruzaniron.
What they need is a hefty dose of reality and to remove the trash prior to the advent of the storm.

Truly absurd.

St Croix organized clean-up groups have started getting cooperation and assistance from VIWMA. Last clean-up I went to, we carried our haul out to a main road for VIWMA pick-up within a few days. These photos weren't our piles, but that may be the case here too. Or, it may be waiting for someone with a truck and some time to haul it. The time and expense needed to gather it into one place is commendable in its own right. It's sweaty, dirty, scratchy work. The spray paint is probably out of frustration, or an attempt to nudge public attitude in the right direction.

It's hard to figure out the message. Obviously there was an organized trash pick-up. But the spray paint? Were they thanking the litter patrols? Encouraging more pick-ups? Criticizing the litterers? Criticizing a late pick-up?

Jeeze! This is easy to figure out.

This is one guy doing his part, and trying to shame our obviously shameless litterers and appliance dumpers.

According to FB this guy is doing above and beyond his part. Criticize if you must but I'm gonna do the same thing. Police a road, bag up the trash, paint VI NICE on them for people to see, then drive the same route with my truck to collect them and take to dump.

Brilliant litter campaign!!!!!!!

How can this " become part of the problem"??? Dragging crap out of the bush?

Only a problem when it sits and sits and sits. I have already taken 2 loads to dump site. There was a suggestion to ask Timmy Duncan to do an anti- litter TV spot. Maybe Busspipe ? Thought it was a good idea.

Busspipe anti litter campaign......PERFECT! Starring Timmy Duncan and Raja Bell shooting hook shots into a trash barrel.

Who knows how to contact Mr. Buss Pipe?

How about everyone contacting VIWMA and requesting they get on it and do their job by getting those contracted and paid by them to do their jobs.

Why not go a step farther? Get the fat, old tourist guy and the Quadrille dancers out there while dancing and playing the song...
