i think we should vote for a greener future for britain.here's so much better and you can just be a small thing that can make a big difference. for example, cigarette butts, to live in the van and set them on the ground, putting it in the bin can make a big difference. chewing gum has cost thousands of thousands of lives each year to get it cleaned up. such a waste of taxpayers money. the letter that was just thrown on the ground.
