But did it last?

Adopt-a-highway still picks up thousands of bags of trash just in NH; and there never seems to be an end to it. I live on a seldom traveled rural road, and I spend time picking up trash on my property.

Removing human factors from a warming winter... that seems like an overwhelming task.

I would say that yes it absolutely did last. The impression that ad made back in the 70’s on the general population put pressure and was highly influential on the Federal Government to start the “Superfund” cleanup site campaign with the EPA. Currently there are over 1300 superfund sites nationwide and 20 alone in NH.

The “crying Indian” definitely influenced and played a big part in the superfund creation that to this day continues….

Keep America Beautiful!
