The main thing cleanliness rule - cleanly, not where they do not litter, but where they clean up. To convey to you and me and to everyone who wishes this simple thought, a couple of days ago hundreds of people gathered for a flash mob in a shopping center in the Canadian city of Quebec and held a demonstrative and very spectacular experiment … It all started with a discarded plastic bottle …
The bottle was left not far from the urn by a man who allegedly bent down to tie his shoelaces. People busily passing by did not pay any attention to her, and if they did hold their gaze, they quickly turned away: after all, there are cleaners, and in general - what is special about a bottle lying on the floor of a supermarket? People passed one after another for several minutes, until finally a young blonde bent over the bottle.
And as soon as the girl threw the trash into the trash can, the hall just burst into applause, hundreds of hitherto indifferent visitors jumped up from their seats and put on orange caps on their heads, continuing to applaud, and the girl who respected cleanliness rules, surrounded by reporters with cameras.
Such was the flash mob action undertaken by the team "Teste sur des humains" (from French "Experiments on people") for TVA channel … The action is aimed at taking care of cleanliness and ecology, her message: do not pass by, clean up the trash, otherwise the whole world will turn into a dump (like the hotel in Madrid we have described, decorated with rubbish). In the course of the video from the flash mob, the authors report that every year the world produces 671 thousand tons of plastic (this is not so: in fact, about 300 million tons), 400 million bottles are thrown away in Quebec alone, 18,000 pieces of plastic float on every square kilometer of the Pacific ocean, and 91% of Quebecans care about the environment.
We, of course, are far from Quebecans in this regard, but we cannot but admit the usefulness of the flash mob, which proves: one of the rules of cleanliness should become ecological activity of everyone … And if it is rewarded with public recognition, then it is generally good. The Canadians promise to hold the next action on April 4 - I wonder what they will come up with this time?
