Growing Area means Growing Litter on our Roadways

Segment 1, August 17th, 2024


The Carolina Outdoors ends each week with a statement to remember to pick-up your trash.  A recent article by Luke Fountain was published in the Charlotte Observer regarding the 1.5 million pounds of garbage removed last year from Mecklenburg County roadways.  This was a fifty percent increase from the year before.


Bill Bartee host of the Carolina Outdoors reminded listeners across the area the importance of keeping our world looking good.


Show Highlights:



  • Due to the growth in our area, litter will continue to grow
  • NCDOT cleans the interstates twice a month but other roads are less frequent
  • Leave the place better than you found it!  Pick up your trash.

The Carolina Outdoors is powered by the local outfitter in Charlotte, Jesse Brown’s.
