what would be an appropriate penalty for public littering?
user
an appropriate penalty for public littering would be a monetary fine. the amount should be commensurate to the amount of litter left, and should serve as a deterrent to those considering littering. other potential penalties could include community service, mandatory classes in environmental science or pollution control, or being required to pick up litter in a designated area.
