Been to Morocco a couple of times. Zoom in on the photo
The amount of dumped rubbish is quite frankly fucking shameful. There’s a sea of plastic bags and coke bottles everywhere to the point they’re blowing all over the Sahara too
It could be such an amazing tourist spot, being so close to Europe, but the locals treat it like a giant rubbish dump. It’s such a shame
The US doesn’t have a tourist problem due to it’s trash, nor do people often say generalized statements like “American locals treat their country like a rubbish dump” after finding 5 pieces of trash in a field.
It already is? It’s not a religious problem, it’s a third world country problem. People just have more important things to worry about than plastic littering but I agree it needs to be changed.
There should be prohibitions against plastic bags in general but there’s no caliphate now, so it’s not a monolith that sets the rules.

I’ve been in Marocco last September near Merzouga, at the edge of the desert. Had the same experience: looks like littering is an accepted habit.
5 pieces of rubbish have been circled in a field. It would not surprise me to find 5 pieces of rubbish in a field of similar size in the US.
Yeah, they’re as bad as the US
What’s your point?

Yes, absolutely. Tunisia too. Time for some new religous rules that’s relevant today. It should be haram to disrespect nature.

I wonder how much faster plastics break down on sand vs in the ocean… if it is faster. And does it drop below the size of a microplastic in sand.
