A Little Trash Talk.

You don't want to make me angry!  You know what makes me angry, trash on the ground.  You know that made Walt Disney angry too.  When he was designing Disney World, he did a study at Disney Land and discovered people will typically walk no longer than 30 steps to throw something away.  More than 30 steps, that trash is on the ground.  So, at my home, Walt Disney World, you will never be more than 30 steps away from a trash can.

Also, you will rarely find bubble gum stuck to the bottom of a bench here at Disney World.  Why? In order to help prevent this from happening, Walt decided that we won't sell bubble gum here at my home.

So how exactly do we handle the trash here at Disney World?  We use our vacuum trash system that has been used as a model in big buildings and parts of cities.  It uses pipes 2 feet in diameter to suck all the trash to a central location.  The trash moves at 60 miles an hour using compressed air.

There is a whole 'nother world below you when you are at Disney World, and this world is known as the Utilador.  It is a system of tunnels that run beneath the Magic Kingdom.  But did you know, these tunnels are actually on ground level and the park is on the "second story."  You see in the Orlando area, you can not dig very deep before you hit water.  So, the designers at Disney decided to build up!

Although tons of things happen here at the Utilidor, taking care of the trash is one of the major ones!  Taking care of the trash down here shows how we here at Disney pay attention to detail.  We don't want our visitors to see us take out the trash!

We even have a talking trash can here!  His name is Push the Talking Trash Can and he lives at Animal Kingdom.  He would love to talk to you if you ever come and visit!

On another note,  in the Disney 3-D attraction Philharmagic, I am the main character.  Why?  Because regardless of what language you speak (and we host people from all over the world here), you can understand me, or not understand me really.  Only my pals here truly understand my spits and stutters.
