** What enviromental issues around Liverpool and in your local neighborhood? **
= Environmental issues around Liverpool are that a lot of people don’t use the local bins for their litter and don’t put the used trolleys back to where they belong. The rubbish that is littered on the floor travels to the water ways and to the ocean or sea. That rubbish then gets eaten by sea animals and gets killed. The trolleys around Liverpool can cause different issues on the streets. The councilors spend a lot of money to buy trolleys to consumers. =
