  Camping: The Cost of Graffiti (2535 Reads)
News Vast sums of money is spent annually on cleaning up graffiti, when this money could be used for the provision of leisure resources for the youth of today.

Often young people complain that there aren't enough places for them to go and have fun, but surely they are biting the hand that feeds them by the destructive nature of graffiti and vandalism. It is their parents and other taxpayers who are paying for their destructive tendencies.

If graffiti and vandalism stopped, would the money saved be used by local authorities to invest in youth facilities?

Note: If you have been involved in any community projects that have improved the environment where you live, submit your own article to Active Outdoors.
