Why is littering important to stop?

Answer 1

Littering is an issue because it harms the environment when you toss non-biodegradable materials all over the place. (non-biodegradable means that it takes a very long time for this material to break down into usable soil again. ex: plastic; styrofoam.) Also, some things that people commonly trow out (empty oil cans, uncut pop rings) are harmful to animals. You may be wondering about throwing out food. This is also littering for a few reasons. A specific way food litter is harmful is when mice and other rodents come to eat it at night, owls fly across the road and get hit by cars because they fly headlamp height and drivers cannot see them.
