Don't feed pigeons

I am concerned about the problem of pigeons in Hong Kong.

In other parts of the world, pigeons might be liked, but I think most people here don't like them, because with their droppings, they are a major source of pollution. They can spread disease with their faeces.

I see them everywhere, in both public and private housing estates, and they make the environment very dirty.

I would encourage inconsiderate people to stop feeding these pigeons, as it helps to increase the pigeon population and makes the pollution problem even worse.
