Yes, I understand. And if they hadn't picked up any litter there would be (something like) twice as much litter. You don't really need a "litter cleanup crew" in places where litter is a one-time thing.

*Any* litter in a spot is bad. It doesnt matter if it’s 10 lbs of litter or 20 lbs of litter, it’s pretty much equally unappealing. And the overall point is: *contrary to popular belief*, cleaning up a spot to make it free of litter for a moment does not result in a people ceasing to litter there.

I'm seriously doubt that this is a "popular belief." I've always understood litter abatement to be an ongoing task. I would think you'd have to have largely never been outside in a city to believe otherwise.

For people who honestly believe that finding litter in a location is a one-time thing, I don't think they have enough common sense to understand your point.
