Picking Up Trash Can Make a Big Difference

It can feel like litter is overwhelming, but individual actions truly matter. Imagine the positive change if everyone simply picked up a few stray items each day!

We can all contribute in various places:

• Parks and Trails: Help keep these natural escapes clean and enjoyable for all. Let’s aim to leave them better than we found them.
• Event Spaces: A quick sweep for discarded items after events helps maintain cleaner venues.
• Sidewalks and Streets: Removing litter enhances our neighborhoods and protects local environments by keeping trash out of storm drains.
• Beaches and Lakeshores: Protect these delicate ecosystems by collecting any trash you see.
• School Grounds and Playgrounds: Ensure healthier and cleaner spaces for children.

Taking the initiative to pick up trash demonstrates care for our shared spaces and can inspire others. Creating cleaner spaces starts with you.

Simple Tip: Keep a small bag or gloves handy to quickly and safely collect any litter you encounter. Every single piece makes a difference!
