Bill Leslie's Carolina Conversations

"People are always asking me where to take vacation. What’s a cool place? What’s the most scenic drive?" WRAL News Anchor Bill Leslie attempts to answer those questions and others in his Carolina Conversations blog.

Calling All Sloganeers!

We've had a few entries in our anti litter slogan contest but we need a few more.  We want to come up with a snappy hook line that will convince North Carolinians to stop trashing our roadsides.  A recent trip to Charleston convinced me that NC can do a better job of curbing litter compared to at least some sections of South Carolina.

Coming up the slogans I have received so far.  I will take entries for another week and then announce and winner and a prize.  I don't have any coffee mugs but I've got lots of music to give away.

These anti litter slogans have been sent in.  Feel free to comment on them and add your own:

"Secure your load. Don't lose it on the road"
 
TRASH FOR CASH.
(You swap your trash for the cash you will spend in littering fines.)
 
"Don't litter our home: On your Carolina ride, remember your Carolina pride."
 
This is our world people.. keep it clean
 
Keep the Earth clean, it's not Uranus"
 
Take pride in where you live !

I like this one: Fight the war on litter. Be a Weapon of Trash Reduction.

(here's another entry from a viewer who emailed me) Hi Bill: Here's one I thought of.............. First in Flight, First to Remove Litter Blight

L ove I t T he E nvironment R ecycle

Bed bugs bite. Jitterbugs dance.

What's cool about Litterbugs?

NOTHING!

So clean up your reputation, and stop littering.

Put the trash in the can, man.

(Last line could stand alone as slogan)

P. Pack, Apex, NC

Trash it or stash it. You choose or you lose

(More slogans from my email, Thanks, Nadine!)

No N Clutter in C

Don't litter, it attracts critters.

Litter damages your stuff too. (meaning the slashed tire gotten from running over some metal)

Bill, this was fun.

Nadine Skinner Rocky Mount

Losers Litter...Don't Be A Loser!

Don't Trash The Scenery

Litter Free For A Better Place...

Our State, Our Pride. Keep It Grand, North Carolina

Keep NC Beautiful. Pick it up!

(from my email) "Nothing could be finer than a clean North Carolina."
