Guys I'd like to think i'm a considerate camper.. no music, no gennie, no dust burn outs etc etc...

But I've seen here a few times now people being "upset" with others throwing rubbish on the fire.

I must admit while camping I keep two piles of rubbish, things which will burn and things that wont. Last night I get a good sized fire (no not 6 feet high, just one with a fair amount of heat) and then slowly throw the rubbish in. Next morning anything that didn't burn I pick out of the fire base and take out with me.

Buggered if I can understand what this is bad...?

I assume some people think that its bad for the environment burning rubbish.. but frankly I can't see how its any better or worse than being throwing in a land fill leaching into our water supply...

Anyone car to enlighten me please.

Matt
