What would you do?

As a tourist there are certain things that I expect when
I come to the Chesapeake Bay
area. What I do not want to see is broken bottles on the
road, trash, and other forms of
malnutrition and litter. I come here to see the animals
alive, not dead on the road, or
trapped in bottle cans, or their furs full of oil and
contaminated water. When I come here I
would like to see the exact opposite, I want to see
clean rivers, and clean animals. I want
to be able to walk through a State Park, or a campsite
with out having to side step every
second just so that I don’t step on trash or any other
contaminated liquids. Since I help pay
for half the stuff that goes on here, I should be
entitled to a few perks as to the condition
of the parks. Some of the things that I’d like to see
my money go to would be like a
cleaning crew or something to get rid of all the trash
and garbage that has accumulated
around the area; as well as specialists to help the
animals get out of their current and
painful conditions. In order for these things to be
complete I would be willing to pay more
money for admission and what ever else the park or camp
has to offer.

Do you think that you can find any places around here
that are actually clean and
would you be willing to physically help clean up your
part of the neighborhood to get
to your solution? Also, how much would you be willing to
pay to help clean up and
would you expect your money to go to cause as you wish?
From:

Ask

Would you be willing to join one of these cleaning
crews, do you want to be the
person who has to walk around and pick up other peoples
trash?

If the cleaning crew was in my neighborhood I would more
in likely join the
cleaning crew, and help pick up the trash.

Why is it that you pay for half of what goes on in that
area, is it a fee for touring?
and how much is half?

Our tax money helps pay for half the stuff, along with
the fact that in
'some' National Parks, and other areas of Historical
reference and whatnot,
there tends to be a gift shop where people spend their
money, and that
money they spend at the gift shop might sometimes get
put into the money to
help with the forest. Some places do have touring
fee's, and as far as the
half of the money that would probably depend on where
you went.

Well, how does this apply to the Bay's problems? How
does it affect state parks?
From:

Statement

I don't think that paying more for the admission to
the park would be enough to
pay for the clean up crews in the park. You would have
to get the state to give more
money for them to be paid their hourly wages. Other than
that I couldn't agree
more with what you have stated.

I must say that I wholly agree with your statement.
Thank you for pointing that
out for me.

If you want to see the world be a cleaner place, why not
help clean it up?

Does the bay have campsites?

Instead of paying more money for the camp would you be
willing to offer some of your
time to clean up the litter in the area.
From:

Ask

What if people aren't willing to pay more money? What
else can you do directly to clean
up and how do you know that the money goes to the clean
up? How do you know that the
money isn't going toward the restoration?

Because we said so. - local_gov - JWHS(T)
Statement

I like how you are being very suportive of cleaning up
the bay and how you even offer to
pay more money. It shows that the bay actaully means
something to the people who
come to visit it. It lame how other people don't care
and they keep making it worse for
the people who actaully want to enjoy the bay.
