I think they should charge a deposit on every plastic bottle.. that way people would be less inclined to throw them away and others would be inclined to pick them up..

There are some great incentives I've seen at recycling plants where they pay you 5 cents for a plastic bottle and 25 cents for glass. People need to be more aware of these things and repercussions also.
In some states here they charge the buyer the deposit upfront .. generally 5 or 10 cents each.. but you get that back when you bring the can or bottle back
