Littering the zoo premises

Why do Kolkattans not stop littering the zoo gardens? Why do Kolkattans carry food stuff in plastic packets and throw them once its purpose is served? Are the environmentalists only bothered about enforcing ban in digging up the Maidan for political rallies and for shifting the location of the prestigious Kolkata Book Fair? These are questions that Kolkattans should ask themselves. In spite of instructions, the visitors to the Alipore zoo just do not bother about preserving the environment. The zoo gardens are places where one comes to enjoy the abundance of Nature because, while wild animals pace up and down in enclosures and while the colorful birds flutter in their cages, the exotic marine life leaves the visitor spellbound. The surroundings should not be littered but maintained as clean as possible. It would be a tough task for people accustomed to littering but, one has to make a start at some place.
