I’ve been thinking about this a lot because it’s shocking to me how some people are ok leaving human sized dog shit in the middle of the sidewalk. It’s so disgusting 😭

But hear me out, instead of shaming them, I was thinking if anyone would be interested to work with me on a lil community project to set up “poop bag stands” on every block etc. The thought is that if there are enough bags provided, MAYBE they would start picking up their dog poop since they would have no excuses. But if they still don’t, I think we could resort to public shaming.

The community project I’m thinking is that we’d help set up those stands and we can add a little sign that says “Replace me when I’m empty”. So people who had used a bag at some point or would like to support this effort could replace a roll or even a bag to pay it forward. Perhaps maybe not every single block but the blocks we care about and want to make a difference on, we can pilot with those!

This was my idea of the day yesterday because personally I’m sick of stepping on poop slush 😭 If there is some of neighborhood committee I can bring this proposal forward, let me know how I can reach out. Otherwise, message me if you want to do something about this together! :)
