Today I was leaving the parking lot at the grocery store when a woman threw her lit cigarette butt out the window of her van. She pulled into a parking space and I parked behind her and waved her over to my car.
First, I smiled, identified myself as the daughter of a fire chief and said, "Please do NOT throw your lit cigarette butts out the car window. You know how bad those fires are and how fast they spread." She immediately apologized and said, "Oh, you are so right. I'm sorry. I'll go pick it up!" But, she didn't even know where she had tossed it and looked in the wrong place until I pointed at the intersection. Then she ran out and got it.
Give VOICE for the prevention of senseless acts. Won't you please help? Look around. Step up and take a stand for a cause that will benefit all of us.
Thank You.
