Waste Management

Here's a problem for anyone who wishes to answer. Our school has a waste management problem. People are careless and often leave trash lying about rather than placing it in a designated recepticle. Our only theory for this so far is that our school is one of the two high schools in the district that draws off some of the most affluent socio-economic areas in the city. This other high school has a similar waste management problem, so we suspect that many (certainly not all: I'm not trying to stereotype, but merely make a social observation to give direction to a possible solution) about students' economic fortuity makes them indifferent to such problems. Many attempts have been made jto rectify this chronic problem, but none have been permanently successful. The question is how can this problem be solved? Removing the vending machines that are a major cause of waste (and public health epidemics which are all part of an accidental conspiracy of society and government to destroy itself: a "Catch-22") is out of the question (if it were up to me I would stage a public demonstration in which each and every vending machine would be destroyed with pyrotechnics, place a constitutional ban on vending machines on public property, and detain everyone who challenged the ban using the wonderful powers of the US Patriot Act to make the Bill of Rights optional (these wretched people are "possible enemies of the state" indeed!)). So what should be done about waste management?
