RE: QC Weekly Community Contest #142: Public Places – How People Take Care of Them.

This is a great post on a really important topic! You've explained clearly why people do or don't look after public places, going beyond just how they look.
I especially liked your points about:

"Not mine" thinking: This is a big problem that needs to change.

Culture and values: Our community's values really show in how clean public places are.

Solutions: Education, rules, and recognizing good deeds are key. The story of the woman rewarded for cleanliness perfectly shows how encouragement helps.

Your final message to "play our part" is a perfect ending. This post makes you think and offers good ideas for making things better. Excellent work!
