Start now by clearing plastic/ metal rubbish from 'green' areas within the city
From "Alive with Nature"
Go to the project
There are many beautiful patches of natural habitat within the city of Stirling area that are choked with rubbish and overgrown with invasive weeds and potential hazards to animals e.g. ragwort. Just clearing these would encourage the local population to value and use these areas more responsibly. Where this has been done e.g. at riverside, the area is more popular and healthy. Likewise incentivising takeaways for use compostible wrapping would reduce the discarded plastic that adds to the environmental damage in our area.

Stirling seems particularly blighted by rubbish in the green areas and unfortunately a lot is ending up in the River Forth!. We have to encourage people not to drop litter and not to throw things from their vehicles. I believe some councils are trying out a 'Litter Cam', can we see what is happening with that.

just wondering if free litter picking kits could be added to the resources offered from local libraries to encourage citizens to help keep our city hazard free
