Environment

Trash is not what makes the beaches beautiful!

It is a wonderful experience to enjoy nature such as beaches or forests, but all too often people forget the pristine environment they are in and litter.

Although the prevalent thought is basically that one person's litter won't make difference, but that is simply not true.  Even if it is just aesthetically, a clean place is a beautiful place.  Plus, it is not normally one person who litters; it is one, then another, then another?

Just think of any natural place that you went to, where people had littered?it dampens the experience.

There are some great things that we can do, apart from the obvious of not littering which can make an immediate and satisfactory difference in your world.  You can organize a group of people or go by yourself to clean up an area.  When you finish, you can rest assured that you will love the difference it makes.  Have fun with it, make a picnic, take pictures, and enjoy the day.

Another great thing that you can do is carry a plastic bag with you when you are walking, and pick up a few pieces of trash on your way.  You don't need to pick up everything, but every little bit makes a difference.

When I lived on the beach, I would see random different people out every day with plastic bags, just picking up the trash?their efforts kept our beaches spotless, and their only reason for doing it was because the cared about the beaches and their environment.  It is simple and it makes our world beautiful!
