Be considerate and don't throw things out the window

Throwing things out the window is bad, irresponsible behaviour. Moreover, it can kill innocent people. Two people were injured by scissors thrown out of buildings last week.

In my housing estate, many selfish people throw things out the window, including tissue, leftover food and newspapers.

The government should put up posters in all residential complexes to urge people to act more responsibly. Also, teachers should remind children about the dangers of throwing things out the window.

Parents should punish their children if they do that.
