March 20th welcomes the “official Spring” for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere of our beautiful blue planet. Depending on where you live, this can coincide with warming temperatures and a bit of flooding.

There are several places in my area where the snow piles have melted and the floodwaters receded. Both are popular places for trash to collect (both naturally and/or through human influence). Has your keen eye noticed locations like these in your area?

 

It is a great opportunity to go out with a pair of gloves and pick up the litter. I recently scoured my neighborhood in two 10-minute sessions. I dedicate the first wave to gathering trash and the next for any recycle worthy items. I even got a nod from a family in the area and they started their own little clean up too. Nice!

When I finished got exercise and helped the environment. I encourage you to look for ways of taking your Spring cleaning to the next level.

Hope the rest of your week is great!
