Japanese netizens have expressed their admiration for two youngsters who posted a picture on Twitter to show all the rubbish they had collected from their local beach after visitors had left it in a mess. So far, their picture has gathered almost 60,000 retweets.
Many comments pointed out that while the boys might be showing off a little, this kind of trend was far better than the recent photographs of part-time staff in restaurants and convenience stores posting pictures of themselves doing stupid things at work that led to them being fired, and in some cases led to the stores being closed.
Do you think their pride and dedication to their local area is admirable? Or are they just trying to get some attention?

@sakasakahagedy:
Doesn’t everyone love the beach? It’s fun, right?
But that changes when people leave it dirty. And just as everyone has a hometown, Zushi Beach is our hometown.
We won’t forgive the bastards who come to our hometown and just throw their trash there.
Please, have some manners.
This is how much we collected.

Impressive.
毒霧(dion軍)：
They’re upstanding young men.
雪崩式ブレーンバスター(岡山県)：
Even idiots get down to it when they have to.
エルボーバット(関西・東海)：
Their love for their hometown is remarkable.
Those shitty people who come to the seaside and leave their trash scattered there are a total nuisance.
ショルダーアームブリーカー(新潟県)：
So cool.
ジャンピングカラテキック(沖縄県)：
The number of trashy humans who dump their trash are larger by comparison.
セントーン(兵庫県)：
If you look closely, they’ve even divided up all the rubbish for recycling.
They haven’t just picked up the rubbish, they’ve actually thought about what they’re going to do with it afterward.
We should look and learn.

Good deeds aren’t something you show off about.
エルボーバット(東日本)：[in response to above]
Doing something good because you want to look good or stand out — that’s very welcome ＾＾
毒霧(dion軍)：[also in response to above]
Just like we saw with that guy in the ice cream freezer cabinet [which lead to a lot of similar incidents] youngsters are easily influence by trends. When you look at a picture like this one, wouldn’t it be just amazing if there were more guys who pick up trash?
フォーク攻撃(埼玉県)：
These are good idiots.
スパイダージャーマン(やわらか銀行)：
It’s really lovely to see people being proud of having done a good dead instead of a bad one.
キン肉バスター(福井県)：
Those guys have kind souls.
エルボーバット(東日本)：
Let’s praise them some more
Come on ^ ^
ダイビングフットスタンプ(関東・甲信越)：
They’ve done something amazing,
but they shouldn’t have taken the photo themselves with them in it being all like “how ‘about that?”!
キン肉バスター(新疆ウイグル自治区)：
To say “We did good! Praise us!” is so sincere, it’s great.
名無しさん＠涙目です。(静岡県)：
Cleaning up the seaside is a magnificent thing to do. But the fact that they’re boasting about shows they’re green.
Staying quiet about it is what makes you a real man.
オリンピック予選スラム(関東・甲信越)：
Guess it’s a good thing they tweeted about it.
People trying to imitate them will probably start appearing.
ジャンピングカラテキック(兵庫県)：
Recently stupid Twitter is filled with criminals.
It’s important that there are guys who do stuff like this.
エルボーバット(東日本)：
The mass media should spread stuff about good deeds like this ＾＾
カーフブランディング(栃木県)：
This is going to create a rubbish collecting boom!
