One thing about living in Ireland that frustrates me is, the amount of plastic garbage thrown around. Ireland is a beautiful country, and the people who live here, for the most part, don't seem to respect it. This can be seen in the amount of garbage flowing in the Liffey River, to the point that it has become a joke. This is also seen in the grocery stores in Ireland where everything comes wrapped in plastic. Now, you might think I'm exaggerating but really, I'm not. Look at these pictures I snapped quickly the other night. Every piece of fruit and vegetable comes wrapped in plastic. The apples have to be bought in plastic wrapped bundles of six. Even a single cucumber is wrapped in plastic.
