Litter concern at highest levels since record began as 90% say it's an issue

Barry Fisher, Chief Executive at Keep Scotland Beautiful, said: “Scotland is facing a litter emergency - and there is consistent recognition of this annually.  The data we’ve published today only strengthens the need for positive and imminent change across all areas, from innovative behaviour change interventions, to bin provision and servicing, to enforcement and the speedy introduction of policies which we urgently need to ensure our country has a more circular economy.  We can’t keep saying that there is a problem.  We need to ensure we reverse the trend with consistent, collective action.
