Litter, in its simplest form, is trash of any type thrown where it does not belong. This experiment examined the relationship between stand-alone garbage bin placement and littering behavior in large auditoriums. If garbage bins are removed from auditoriums is there a littering problem? The locations of the stand-alone garbage bins were manipulated in three conditions, bins outside, bins inside and a control condition in the form of no bins. Ultimately, this study finds that standalone garbage bins did not have an impact on the quantity of litter left in auditoriums. Marginally significant results indicate that stand-alone garbage cans inside of auditoriums may have a detrimental effect on food scrap removal, and so opens up a wealth of possibility for future research. In addition, the data that was acquired provides comprehensive and practical implications that create a thought-provoking foundation that can be used for additional investigation by UBC Sustainability.
