    complain

    To Whom it may concern,

    I am writing to express my concern about the several problems with the rubbish and especially dog´s excrement on the paviment, inthe area where I live.

    In addition, this problem not only is increasin each day, for example the paviment is very dirty because the people to throw beer or coke cans and cigarrettes butts there but also the people dont pick up their dog´s excrement.

    Many people used to go to the park with their children but now,this kind of places are empty because of the bad smell and some healthy problems that they suffer.

    Moreover, to resolve these problems, i would appreciate it if you will be able to give a speech about to prevention and consenquences for everybody.

    Your faithfully

    Susana.

    Complaint

    To whom it may concern,

    I am writing to express my concern about ongoing issues with the filth and litter in area where I live. For example, people are throwing (garbage/trash/rubbish)* such as beer bottles, coke cans, and cigarette butts on the (pavement/walkways)*. Also, too many people are not picking up their dog´s excrement. The problem is increasing every day. 

    Not only does it look terrible, but it smells really bad. I also think it is a health concern to the locals. Many people used to go to the park with their children, but now the park is often empty due to the amount of litter and dog excrement. 

    As a caring member of the community, I would appreciate if action could be taken to resolve the problem. May I suggest putting (trash cans/rubbish bins)* and plastic bag dispensers for dog waste around the area so it is easier to dispose of garbage? Additionally, it could be helpful to install signs that remind people that littering is illegal and will be enforced if someone is caught throwing trash on the ground. These are small measures that I believe can have a big impact on the cleanliness of the area. 

    Yours faithfully,

    Susana

    *Some words are better depending on the region you live. For example, in the USA, "trash" and "trash can" is preferred. But in Australia and England, "rubbish" is more used. "Pavement" and "walkways" describes basically the area of the street. 

    Also, I changed the last part the most significantly. I wanted to offer my idea for a possible solution. 

    Hope that helps!
