Cleanup Kit Giveaway
We’re excited to announce that it’s our fall Cleanup Kit Giveaway time!
The change of seasons is welcome to many, with cooler temperatures, and less humidity. But unfortunately, one thing that doesn’t change is the need to clean up litter left in the landscape.
According to Keep America Beautiful’s recent Litter Study, nearly 50 billion pieces of litter along United States roadways and waterways. Overall, there was more litter near waterways (25.9 billion pieces on 10.7 million miles) than on roadways (23.7 billion pieces on 8.3 million miles) though, proportionally, roadway and waterway litter represent similar quantities of the total litter items discarded nationwide (47.8 percent and 52.2 percent, respectively).
Keep America Beautiful encourages all individuals to pick up 152 pieces of litter. Why 152? Using information from the litter study, they determined that if everyone made the individual action of picking up 152 pieces of litter (all at once) there would be no litter on the ground until someone littered again. #152andYou
