[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Along the banks of the White River at Morrow's Meadow, a town park in Yorktown, Indiana, human disregard for the environment is all too easy to find. Just lower your eyes, and you will see glass products, plastics, rusted pieces of metal, and other debris.

Much of the debris probably originates in Muncie, a larger city up river, and is deposited in the park during floods, which seem to occur at least once a year.

The city of Muncie was once home to the Ball Corporation, a glass manufacturer, as well as several companies tied into the automotive industry. Most, if not all, of these companies have now gone, but the empty factories and warehouses still remain like skeletons of industrial waste.

And so does their trash.

Hello Randy,

I definitely can understand your annoyance; here in Portugal this happens everywhere, all the time! Some people are just so irresponsibly SELFISH!
Thanks for sharing.
