The Right-Wing’s Trashy Response To The Biggest Climate March Ever

Posted on

On Sunday, as many as 400,000 people descended on New York City to demand that world leaders finally get serious about global warming.

But all some news sites could talk about was the trash.

“Litterbug Climate Marchers Leave Behind Piles of Trash” reported Breitbart, over a compilation of pics and tweets documenting the admittedly unsightly piles of bags, cups, cans and signs that marchers left behind on corners and sidewalks and piled around garbage cans. The self-satisfied hosts of Fox News’ “The Five” admonished the marchers to “practice what they preach.” The Independent Journal Review tisked that the trash “distinctly contradicts the purpose of the march in the first place.”
