We will pick up all the litter we see
On September 21, we take matters into our own hands and go out and pick up all the litter we see. The day is in connection with World Cleanup Day, which means that people all over the world go out and pick up litter at the same time. We at EWF Eco are looking forward to being a part of the fantastic initiative "Hela Sverige plockar skräp" organized by Håll Sverige rent. Everyone is welcome!
It doesn't matter where we throw our rubbish
Litter that ends up on land eventually finds its way to the sea, and litter in cities also affects nature and wildlife. Moreover, litter creates more litter. When a place is already littered, we are much more likely to leave our disposable cups, plastic bags and glass paper there too.
Want to make a difference for the environment but not sure where to start?
Here are three easy ways to take part in the "Hela Sverige plockar litter":
- Join us as we pick up litter. Link to the event can be found here.
- Grab a friend and go on a litter picking trip in your area.
- Spread the word when you pick up litter @hållsverigerent #hållsverigerent
Litter picking is free all year round
Take care when you're on your way to work, school or going for a walk in the woods. There's always time to pick up some litter on the go. Invite a friend along. A litter picking trip can be a little adventure in itself and can create opportunities to talk about environmental issues.
Good luck with your litter picking,
Wishing the friends at EWF Eco
