Almost every time I take the bike out for a ride, I come across a discarded face mask. Welcome to the new cigarette butt replacement as the most littered thing on Earth. Well, maybe not as bad as a lazy smoker tossing butt after butt out the car window or dropping the spent dispenser cartridge of addiction on the ground. But it’s ridiculous. Anyway, at least the lovely mountain views aren’t polluted. One of these photos was shot at 16mm which makes the light poles appear to be falling over. Partly sunny and 61F are on deck for today, cloudy and 34F is the high in my Michigan hometown today.

Yes it’s horrible how they are littered all over the place! I’m envious of your weather, it’s -20 Celsius here ☹️
The amount of trash from this pandemic has been awful. I’m not a fan of all this plastic and single-use items either. It just seems so wasteful.
Masks and rubber gloves! And of course disposable coffee cups. 🤢
Coffee cups from that overpriced, stinky coffee that comes out of Starbucks!
Same here in Belgium… no respect !!
That’s terrible! Apparently, humans everywhere love to litter. Nasty!
