handy, but go the extra mile and collect everything: old paper, bottles, even batteries.
Pick up littler
Go to a popular park or street and pick up litter. Sort out the recyclables from the refuse, and be sure to
wear gloves; you never know where the trash has been.
Inform and motive others
This can be as simple as telling a friend, or as ambitious as starting a local group, or even a worldwide
organization.

Things like clothes and old equipment can be donated. Old bottles and egg cartons can be made into
neat crafts. Leftovers can be used to make compost.
