My mural depicts what happens and what will keep happening if we don't pick up after ourselves. The main concept revolves around the fact that there are no filters or there is little treatment to the storm drain water. The message is emphasized by the title "No filter. Please Don't Litter". It will be a constant reminder that what goes through the storm drains ends up in our rivers and the bay, affecting our ecosystem.
