"This is a fun place."
Should'nt worry about all the stick waving, moaning and grumbling its just playing to the wider world...
Think Shakespeare, or which it always reminds me off the "greek chorus" behind Auden's Thomas Becketts play, the wailing and wringing of hands at the terrible state of the world. ;)
In actual fact there are laws to protect our landscape and monuments, its just that everyone has to put up an enormous fight to see that they are enacted, some will even go as far as laying down in front of the bulldozers to stop roads, as people in America if I remember rightly lived in the trees to stop them being chopped down.
As for litter at sites, theres probably lots of opinions based on personal perceptions, and not everyone agreeing as always....
