For the national campaign against the increasing pollution of the streets, called 'Good riddance', Amsterdam holds the motto 'Keep your city clean'. For this campaign students in white overalls clean the monument on the Dam, kids pick paper on a field and in the city centre talking paperbins are used. Also footage of shitting dogs and people leaving their litter around.
