Bet they leave a lot of rubbish behind, all drive cars and use computers.

Industry leaders - You don't think I'm going to believe them do you?

BAN PLASTIC BAGS, all shops be directed to use paper bags and suppliers simpler packaging, after all biscuits used to come in brown paper bags.

What's the matter with everyone, even the simple does not get a look in.

Tell me child, what's a soccer ball doing in a baseball mitt?

I heard about the rubbish, it's been on the news over here.

Walking - way to go.
