Take the No Trash Left Behind Challenge!

Next time you walk down the street, on the beach, in the woods, or through a park, and you see some trash lying around: pick it up, and dispose of it properly. This truly is a challenge because it is not our trash, so we view it as dirtier and since we didn’t put that trash there, we view ourselves as not responsible for it. The ones who left their plastic bags behind, or their soda cans or their food packaging should be the ones picking it up. Well yes, but no. We need to be responsible for the ones who aren’t, until they can. It is our planet, our environment, and by picking up the trash that pollutes nature, not only will we ensure that birds and other wild animals don’t eat our trash, but we will also emulate other people to do the same.
