On Saturday, April 30th 2016 from 9:00 am until 1:00 pm, located at 3201 Martin Luther King Junior Drive in Atlanta, Georgia 30311; there will be a scrap tire drop off point.
Our definition of "drop off point" within this blog, basically states that Adamsville Recreation Center parking lots will be where you can leave scrap tires for proper disposal.
It is important to note this particular event; because it is a very positive effort to remove our communities, neighborhoods and homes of scrap tires.
What problems could scrap tires cause just laying around in our environment?
List of Problems Observed:
1) Health & Environmental Related Issues
a) A possible place for disease carrying mosquitoes to thrive.
b) Diseases such as the Zika Virus and Malaria could occur as a result of scrap tires.
2) Influence of Criminal Activity
a) Gangs or Organized Criminal Elements may use scrap tires to mark territory.
3) A Habitat for Snakes and or Rodents
If any combination of the (3) three mentioned items above concern you, your family or neighborhood, perhaps this is your opportunity to do something about the situation.
Also, in the City of Atlanta, you can volunteer, report illegally dumped scrap tires or for questions, contact the ' Keep Atlanta Beautiful Commission ' at 404-330-6721 or email kngreenlee@atlantaga.gov
Well, those are my thoughts. What say you? Thanks for reading our blogs.
