Start small

I will commit to spending a few hours a week to bagging up garbage from one of the several empty lots. Would anyone volunteer to haul the bagged trash away?

Just Do It!

I've started picking up trash around our neighborhood. I do it once a week. Each week I work on a different street and meet a new neighbor. Even though the litter reappears, it helps me feel hopeful that our neighborhood could be nicer & people will start to care. I know that I am making a small difference because I come home with enough trash to fill a large trashcan each week & that trash is no longer on our streets. It's also great exercise!
