    We're not going to stop here!! Let keep going to clean up 1,000,000 pieces of trash! Lets go this together!

I began 2020 with a New Year's resolution of going on a run down my road everyday.

As I would slowly jog down the road I began to notice all of this trash on the side of the road everyday. I realized that the trash would stay there forever unless I did something about it. So I started bringing a backpack with me and picked up trash as I ran. This started my trash cleaning quest.

Drag the line to see the Before and After!

I hope to inspire people to live more eco-conscious lives, and to join the fight against climate change and plastic pollution.
