The 2011 American State Litter Scorecard:New Rankings For An Increasingly Environmentally Concerned Population, Stephen [Steve] L. Spacek

Stephen [Steve] L Spacek

Readers can thus gain a realistic "picture" of "what's going on" within one or all of the 50 states.

The first, original 2008 Scorecard …
