It’s coming up soon - an opportunity to take action to improve positive and reduce negative impacts on the environment. What will you do? Will it go beyond this one day?
I’m going to invest in litter picking gear and spend at least one hour on this day picking litter off the street so that it doesn’t end up in our rivers and oceans (please see the following for more info: https://www.greenpeace.org.uk/plastic-end-ocean/). Every fortnight I’m going to do at least an hour’s worth of litter picking. Why not - it has psychological and health benefits too (see page 20: https://www.keepbritaintidy.org/sites/default/files/resource/15913_Journal%20of%20Litter%20and%20Environmental%20Quality_v7-online%20(1).pdf).

@Alex_Beckett - this is an awesome idea. I see a guy every day running a picking up litter… Community champion!!!
If we all picked up litter on the way home or going somewhere then it would slowly be established as normal behaviour. So let’s all be trend setters!
