Garbage at the Creek

I was very disappointed to see that sometime last night, against the fire ban in Whitehorse, that some one built a fire in McIntyre Creek at the beaver pond near the Takhini sub division. I think they might have felt they were being responsible, by putting the fire out with sand, but they also left their cans and garbage in the sand pile. It never ceases to annoy me that people find it so easy to carry their drink cans & their food bags into the Creek area, yet once they are empty, they find it too difficult to carry their empty containers out. How do we educate people to be responsible to the environment??? I expect they enjoy the environment, or why else would they be there, so why do they not respect it? More mysteries to be solved...
