Pro­duc­tion

The park has started a new initiative where they will be sending trash back to polluters who will also be registered with the police. However, littering in a national park in Thailand is also an offense that is punishable with up to five years in prison and some pretty hefty fines.

Don't lit­ter! This na­ti­o­nal park will ship your gar­ba­ge back to you.

Lit­te­ring is be­co­ming a huge pro­blem be­cau­se of gar­ba­ge sho­wing up ever­y­whe­re in the world in­clu­ding mi­cro­plastics. Now, one na­ti­o­nal park near Bang­kok is de­ter­mi­ned to do so­me­thing about it.

All vi­si­tors to the park must re­gis­ter their ad­dress when en­te­ring.

The park has star­ted a new in­iti­a­ti­ve where they will be sen­ding trash back to pol­lu­ters who will also be re­gis­te­red with the po­li­ce.

Howe­ver, lit­te­ring in a na­ti­o­nal park in Thai­land is also an of­fen­se that is pu­nis­ha­ble with up to five years in pri­son and some pret­ty hefty fines. If this seems to be too se­ve­re for such a small act it should be noted that ani­mals often eat lefto­ver trash and die from it. We have all seen the de­vas­ta­ting pic­tures of ani­mals found with a bunch of trash in their sto­machs and have often won­de­red when so­me­o­ne was going to do so­me­thing about it.
