How is that the fault of plastic wrappings and not the fault of people throwing trash onto the side of the road?

Where did I say that? I was only responding to the assertion "in first world countries almost no household plastic ends up in the environment" pointing out that I see it everywhere.

My bad, sorry. I also see it

> in first world countries

Most would consider The Netherlands to be a first world country, but I understand the term is anachronistic.
