Good reminder: burn it then take it out
Niallo and Roman make good points - last time I was in Sebha it was surrounded by its own rubbish tip. And those cavemen of old made a real mess of the place but their junk fetches good money on ebay!
The UNESCO-listed Tassili plateau out of Djanet (Alg) has also become like Everest base camp despite the fact all groups pay the Tassili NP a fee and are guided... And Taghera (Alg) is a 'flower bed' of white toiler paper petals.
I know parts of the world are a dump but let's not make the wild parts of the Sahara which we seek out any worse. As suggested at the top of the thread burn all rubbish (incl toilet paper!) and take uncombusted remains out to a tip. And if necessary tell your guides/escorts to do the right thing too!

PS: I remember one time seeing in Pinz guy drive his 6-wheeler up onto Ksar Ghilane roman fort because he could. What a twat I thought...
