Septa Goes Green

I went to the Philadelphia Flower Show with my friends MW and EW the other day. My attention was caught as I exited the train at the Market Street station by the new marketing for Septa going green. The posters and other promotional items are not necessarily extravagant, nor are the imagery anything exceptional, but the simple text and witty phrases are very effective. Here are some examples of garbage boxes and posters I viewed during my visit:
