Little Litter

A bedtime story taking five or ten minutes to read.The Dustbin Men find a novel way of picking litter from the beach. All the little bits of litter are sucked up when 'Firebin-Nine' uses his fire-truck as a vacuum cleaner.Some plastics break down in the sea into minute particles that fish ingest and pass through the food-chain in to us. This Dustbin Men stories cannot hope to solve the world's big environmental issues but I trust the power of children to hep us begin; there is nothing more effective than to be told by a child, 'not to drop litter'. As with all Dustbin Men stories, the number painted on the Dustbin Man is used as his name; this story stars 'Professor-One', 'Sailor-Three, and 'Firebin-Nine'.
