​Install more trash bins in public spaces.

​This solution tackles the issue by making it easier and more convenient for people to dispose of their trash properly. Many people litter because there aren’t enough trash bins in public areas. By placing more bins in key locations, the community can significantly reduce littering.
Additionally, clear signage can remind people to use the bins and highlight the importance of keeping public spaces clean. This is a simple and effective solution that can quickly improve the cleanliness of the community without requiring significant changes in behavior.
