I certainly don't feel bad throwing a wrapper on the ground if the whole ground is full of wrappers already. I wouldn't anymore anyway, but it's largely true - people feel worse about committing a crme when they know others don't or aren't doing it.

I think it goes the other way, too: “Why should I carry a wrapper around when ‘no one else’ is?”
