thanks for the article - it touched a nerve in me. There is also so much rubbish left at private beaches along Eastern Rd. Bahamians pull up to these little hideaway, sleep, eat, fish, have sex and leave their trash and condoms - why? Wendy's, KFC, Bamboo Shack, Super Value provides bags why can’t these beach guest (trespassers) use their store bags to cart away their trash with them to the trash can. I am sure property owners don’t really mind you enjoying their beach but to leave trash says you don’t respect their property or our waters. I want us to respect our beaches and most importantly our marine life - one of the most precious resources we have in the Bahamas. Nothing hurts more than to see beer cans and Styrofoam cups in our coral reefs and waters. We need to start a public service program to prompt respect of our beaches. Let us be set apart from what is deem the greatest around the world: Fuji, Canary Is, Hawaii etc…
