So far, it appears that roughly 90 percent would take no issue with a thrown apple core, with some caveats that it's not thrown into a yard or a city street. However, there may be legal risk in throwing the apple, and the benefits to wildlife might be offset by luring them into traffic. It appears that there's no downside environmentally in anyone's mind, and there's an entertainment benefit in trying to hit something with it.
