I know it's only anecdotal, but in the last year, I've seen an uptick in cigarette smoking.
Maybe posting these signs will be necessary again.

A tossed cigarette used to be the primary worry. Now it's illegal campfires and firebugs too. Nonetheless, this photo reminds us to treat nature kindly. Thanks George!
