Yesterday I went to Koggala BOI zone for a personal reason and on the way back we stopped near Galle Fish Market as my father wanted to buy some fish. It was just a few yards away from the sea. This place has a geological nature of a bay. You may have seen that when you travel on Galle road towards Mathara.

I was trying to take a photo but captured these litters here and there. Truly it was a barrier to see the beauty of that place. This is not specific to this place but most of the crowded coastal areas look like this. This rubbish was not thrown by people, not by the ocean or any other animal.
The unfortunate thing is people do not think about the reason for attraction in a place. Sri Lanka is one of the best countries in the beauty of nature special the sea. So these places have high travel attraction. People go there to witness the beauty of the scenery but hardly think of protecting those places for the next generation.
If you love travelling, please take the responsibility of saving that beauty for other generations. Only a few people love travelling and nature both truly. I have seen some who were collecting litter that threw by previous visitors, on the way back and disposed of what they collected in a proper manner. I consider them as true lovers of nature.
I believe that people did the largest and unrecoverable damage to the environment. The places without humans are still amazing and beautiful. Once people started vising a place subsequently its ruining starts. That's how beautiful these people are. People who do not love nature, better stay at home.
Can you see polythene, rigifoam, plastic within the litter? With time, they may fall into the sea and create ocean plastics. Countries that do not have strong rules and regulations over environmental and ocean pollution end up closing damaging the beauty and the value of the environment. But I should say, keep your own laws. You do not need any government rules to protect the place where you live, breath, enjoy and die.
Lots of parties in Sri Lanka raises this matter. But as you mentioned, self discipline is the most important thing regarding this case. 😤

I agree with this. because many people cannot see that nature is clean, even though the responsibility depends on us. as time changes, who will take care of this, if that person always acts to pollute nature.

my solution, if you want to see the sea more beautiful and calm you have to leave earlier than what you have done today. It's a habit in our place when it's still early the sea is still empty of visitors. and the matter of taking photos no one bothers hi

If we just leave footprints on the sand and only take photos, then waves will take them away and make things normal again. the problem occurs when we leave things other than footprints there.

I think the problem is not in the discipline, but in the law , adult People never develop discipline on their own , specially in sri lanka .we have make them by laws . But if there isn't such a law, things like this obviously happens 😑

there are laws. the thing is we don't follow them. I think self-discipline is more important than laws.
