Everyone wants a clean street
Public litter is a universal problem.
A street is clean if people don’t litter,
or someone cleans up when they do.
Everyone knows that. It’s not rocket science.
That’s how homes and offices are kept clean.
So why doesn’t it happen on the street ?
Why don’t we just have bins everywhere and
fine those who litter. Is it really that simple ?
Why the WOL Institute exists

Its mission is to help keep people keep their
streets clean. With simple, practical ideas.
The War on Litter will be won when people

It’s not impossible. You just have to be
smart about how it is done.
