Stop littering at Robbins Lake

I often go to Robbins Lake at Ellis Park to sit and relax, a good place to think. Recently, I picked up several plastic bottles in the water there. I also picked up some debris and some plastic bags, also at the water's edge. They do have trash containers here, even though they're on the small side.
Even then, it's no excuse for anybody to throw any kind of trash or debris in the water or on the ground. These people don't care about the environment or even people, only themselves.
